Our Week 10 call

Start Aaron Rodgers over Bryce Young in Week 10.

Market-based projections have Aaron Rodgers at 16.5 points and Bryce Young at 15.2, a gap of 1.2. That is inside the noise of a single catch, so treat it as close to a coin flip. Aaron Rodgers's number is scaled up from a partial market: not every stat the position needs is posted yet, so the rest is estimated from what is. No player market is posted for Bryce Young this week yet, so his 15.2 is the average of his market-based projections in Weeks 7, 8 and 9 (17.4, 17.0 and 11.3); the call is rebuilt when his market posts. Drafters take Aaron Rodgers at ADP 231 and Bryce Young at 212.

What the market projects

Player markets imply 16.5 fantasy points for Aaron Rodgers, with 80 percent of the markets a QB needs posted.

The market-based projection for Aaron Rodgers is 236 passing yards, 1-2 passing touchdowns and 0.1 rushing touchdowns (9, 10 and 10 market sources).

No Week 10 player market is posted for Bryce Young yet. His market-based projections were 17.4, 17.0 and 11.3 points in Weeks 7, 8 and 9, an average of 15.2, which stands in until his Week 10 market posts.

That puts Aaron Rodgers 1.2 points ahead of Bryce Young on these projections.
