Our Week 10 call

Start Josh Allen over Aaron Rodgers in Week 10.

Market-based projections have Josh Allen at 23.0 points and Aaron Rodgers at 16.5, a gap of 6.4. 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 Josh Allen this week yet, so his 23.0 is the average of his market-based projections in Weeks 8 and 9 (24.3 and 21.6); the call is rebuilt when his market posts. Drafters take Josh Allen at ADP 31 and Aaron Rodgers at 231.
