Should I start MarShawn Lloyd or Pierre Strong in Week 7?
Updated Oct 21, 4:46 PM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
MarShawn Lloyd and Pierre Strong are too close to call on usage: 46 percent of the snaps and 36 percent of the carries against 49 percent of the snaps and 33 percent of the carries over their last 3 games. 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 market-based projections
