It is a coin flip. Jalen Coker projects for 14.3 PPR points and D'Andre Swift for 14.1, within 0.2 of each other.
Break the tie with the floor if you are favored this week, and with the ceiling if you need a big game to win.
They are projected almost level: 14.3 PPR points for Jalen Coker and 14.1 for D'Andre Swift.
The sources range from 13.0 to 16.0 for Coker and from 13.0 to 17.7 for Swift. Either result is well inside both ranges.
They share the same floor, 13.0 PPR points.
Start the higher floor when you are favored and only need to avoid a dud.
D'Andre Swift has the higher ceiling: the most optimistic projection source has Swift at 17.7 PPR points, against 16.0 for Jalen Coker.
Start the higher ceiling when you are the underdog and need points more than safety.
Jalen Coker plays GB and D'Andre Swift plays SEA in Week 8.
By fantasy points allowed to each position, Coker faces the 9th-softest defense against WRs and Swift faces the 15th-toughest defense against RBs, so Jalen Coker has the softer matchup.
Each projection already accounts for the opponent, so a soft matchup is a tiebreaker, not a reason to bench the higher projection.
Over his recent games Jalen Coker has drawn 20% of his team's targets, and D'Andre Swift 54% of his team's carries.
These numbers are in PPR. Full PPR adds a point per catch, so it helps whichever player sees more targets, which here is Jalen Coker.
Switch between PPR, Half PPR and Standard on the board above to rescore both players from the same sources.
Neither Jalen Coker nor D'Andre Swift has an injury designation for Week 8.
Designations change through the week, so check again before kickoff; this page updates with each refresh.
Each figure is the average of the projection sources that carry the player this week: StatChasers, Sleeper, ESPN, numberFire, FFToday and the betting markets (sportsbook player props). Jalen Coker is projected by 5 of them and D'Andre Swift by 6.
A source with no number for a player is left out of the average rather than counted as a zero.
