Side by side

Tyler Shough finished QB26 and Rashid Shaheed WR39, which are two different ladders.

Tyler Shough is a quarterback and Rashid Shaheed a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Tyler Shough is off in Week 8 and Rashid Shaheed in Week 11, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

9.9 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 live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
