Should I start Juwan Johnson or Roschon Johnson in Week 7?
Updated Oct 25, 8:41 AM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start Juwan Johnson: 68 percent of the snaps and 15 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Roschon Johnson's 28 percent of the snaps and 21 percent of the carries. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
Should I drop Roschon Johnson for Juwan Johnson?
Yes, on the rest of the season. Juwan Johnson projects 86 market-implied PPR points from Week 8 through Week 17 (9.6 a game over 9 games), Roschon Johnson 45 (5.0 a game over 9 games).
