Should I Start Darius Cooper or Tank Bigsby in Week 4?

Darius Cooper is projected for 3.0 points, 93rd among wide receivers this week. Most weeks he lands between 0.0 and 5.7. This week he plays vs LAR; the game total is 43.0 and his team is a 3.5-point underdog. The number is built from live market data across 15 books, in half-PPR scoring, and the lines have moved since they opened. How it adds up: 14.5 receiving yards (+1.5), 1.6 catches (+0.8), 0.1 touchdowns (+0.8). Last week (Week 3) he was projected for 1.1 points and did not play.

Tank Bigsby is projected for 2.9 points, 65th among running backs this week. Most weeks he lands between 0.5 and 7.7. This week he plays vs LAR; the game total is 43.0 and his team is a 3.5-point underdog. The number is built from live market data across 16 books, with the stats no book prices filled in from his role and Sleeper’s numbers, in half-PPR scoring, and has held steady since the lines opened. How it adds up: 0.2 touchdowns (+1.3), 11.5 rushing yards (+1.2), 2.8 receiving yards (+0.3). Last week (Week 3) he was projected for 1.9 points and did not play.

It is close to a coin flip. He projects for 3.0 points this week against 2.9 for Tank Bigsby. His chance of outscoring Tank Bigsby is 54%. Their ranges overlap — Darius Cooper usually lands between 0.0 and 5.7, Tank Bigsby between 0.5 and 7.7 — so either can win the week.
