Should I start Ted Hurst III or Tommy Tremble in Week 8?
Updated Oct 28, 2:21 PM ET. Week 9 answers post Tuesday.
Ted Hurst III and Tommy Tremble are too close to call on usage: 56 percent of the snaps and 9 percent of the targets against 57 percent of the snaps and 10 percent of the targets over their last 3 games. 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 gap
- Board size301 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 Tommy Tremble, and the board ranks him 146th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for Ted Hurst III is 1.4 PPR points a game off 1 market across 11 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Tommy Tremble's market-based projection is 5.4 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 86th highest figure of the 205 players with a market-based projection.
Ted Hurst III's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

Their 2025 seasons

He caught 27 of 37 targets for 249 yards and 2 touchdowns, with 5 red zone targets.

He was on the field for 60 percent of the snaps in the games he played.
Side by side
Ted Hurst III is a wide receiver and Tommy Tremble a tight end, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.
