Our Week 2 call

Start Woody Marks over Chris Rodriguez Jr. in Week 2.

Chris Rodriguez Jr.'s number is scaled up from a partial market: the books have not posted every stat the position needs, so the rest is estimated from what they have. Drafters take Woody Marks at ADP 130 and Chris Rodriguez Jr. at 141. Market coverage on Woody Marks is 70 percent of what his position needs, so the market side of this carries proportionally less weight.
