Should I start Woody Marks or Pierre Strong Jr. in Week 10?
Updated Nov 11, 2:16 AM ET. Week 11 answers post Tuesday.
Start Woody Marks: 77 percent of the snaps and 68 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Pierre Strong Jr.'s 23 percent of the snaps and 12 percent of the carries. 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
The market-based projection for Woody Marks is 4.2 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
The market has Pierre Strong Jr. at 3.9 PPR points a game off 2 markets across 7 market sources. That is 70 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
