Should I start Tanner McKee or Zach Charbonnet in Week 7?

Updated Oct 21, 5:21 AM ET.

Start Tanner McKee: he has been on the field this season, 100 percent of the snaps, and Zach Charbonnet has no snap on record yet. 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 Tanner McKee is 16.5 PPR points a game off 3 markets across 11 market sources. That is 70 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

The market-based projection for Zach Charbonnet is 3.4 PPR points a game off 1 market across 3 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Tanner McKee's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
