Should I drop Cam Ward for Daniel Jones?

Not on these numbers alone. Cam Ward projects 99 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (12.4 a game over 8 games) and Daniel Jones 104 (14.8 a game over 7 games), too close to separate, so the roster spot decides it. For Week 10 the call starts Daniel Jones over Cam Ward.

No player market is posted for Cam Ward this week yet, so his 12.0 is the average of his market-based projections in Weeks 7 and 8 (12.1 and 11.9); the call is rebuilt when his market posts.
