Should I start Michael Pittman Jr. or Kenyon Sadiq in Week 10?
Updated Nov 10, 10:11 AM ET. Week 11 answers post Tuesday.
Start Michael Pittman Jr.: 78 percent of the snaps and 11 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Kenyon Sadiq's 48 percent of the snaps and 8 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.

The gap
- Board size306 draftable players
Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.
Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Kenyon Sadiq, and the board ranks him 134th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market has Michael Pittman Jr. at 1.6 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
The market-based projection for Kenyon Sadiq is 1.8 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a tight end's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Michael Pittman Jr.'s projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
