The gap
- Board size335 draftable players
Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.
Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on RJ Harvey, and the board ranks him 80th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for Zach Charbonnet is 10.0 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 40 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
RJ Harvey's market-based projection is 9.4 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 93rd highest figure of the 214 players with a market-based projection.
Zach Charbonnet's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
