Should I start MarShawn Lloyd or Kyle Williams in Week 7?
Updated Oct 21, 10:11 AM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start MarShawn Lloyd: 46 percent of the snaps and 36 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Kyle Williams's 32 percent of the snaps and 6 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 Kyle Williams for MarShawn Lloyd?
Yes, on the rest of the season. MarShawn Lloyd projects 67 market-implied PPR points from Week 7 through Week 17 (6.7 a game over 10 games), Kyle Williams 32 (3.2 a game over 10 games).

The gap
- Board size304 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 MarShawn Lloyd, and the board ranks him 122nd overall on the rest of his evidence.
In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 48.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Kyle Williams, and the board ranks him 124th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for MarShawn Lloyd is 1.8 PPR points a game off 1 market across 13 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Kyle Williams's market-based projection is 4.3 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 115th highest figure of the 202 players with a market-based projection.
MarShawn Lloyd's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

Side by side
MarShawn Lloyd is a running back and Kyle Williams a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.
Byes and availability
Both are off in Week 11, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.
What would change the answer
MarShawn Lloyd has only a partial projection, so the market half of this page is whole for only one of them.
