Should I start Michael Pittman Jr. or Romeo Doubs in Week 6?

Both players' season market-based projection, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.

Updated Oct 18, 1:36 PM ET. Week 7 answers post Tuesday.

Start Michael Pittman Jr.: 78 percent of the snaps and 11 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Romeo Doubs's 73 percent of the snaps and 16 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.
