Should I start Tommy Tremble or Michael Wilson in Week 8?

Updated Oct 28, 6:16 AM ET.

Start Michael Wilson: 88 percent of the snaps and 18 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Tommy Tremble's 57 percent of the snaps and 10 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.

Yes, on the rest of the season. Michael Wilson projects 65 market-implied PPR points from Week 8 through Week 17 (7.2 a game over 9 games), Tommy Tremble 51 (5.1 a game over 10 games).
