Start Michael Wilson: 84 percent of the snaps and 26 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Keenan Allen's 54 percent of the snaps and 22 percent of the targets. 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 Michael Wilson for Keenan Allen?
Not on these numbers alone. Michael Wilson projects 80 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (11.4 a game over 7 games) and Keenan Allen 81 (10.1 a game over 8 games), too close to separate, so the roster spot decides it. Michael Wilson is listed out.
