🎓 The coach's read
Projections are 0.4 apart — too close to call on projection alone.
Jason Myers has the higher floor (2.7) — the safer start if you are favoured.
Ryan Fitzgerald has the higher ceiling (14.5) — the play if you need points.
Ryan Fitzgerald is boom-or-bust — about 12% more volatile week to week than a typical K projected here — wider range in both directions.
Jason Myers faces DEN, 17th most generous to Ks.
Ryan Fitzgerald faces PHI, 23rd most generous to Ks.
Who wins a straight-up trade?
Their trade values are effectively even — a one-for-one is a fair swap on the numbers.
