Side by side

MarShawn Lloyd is a running back and Tez Johnson a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

MarShawn Lloyd is off in Week 11. No bye is listed for Tez Johnson.

What would change the answer

5.9 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when the consensus sample holds these two again it can order them differently from the price, and this page will follow the sample rather than the market price when it does.
