A toss-up
On Sleeper's projections, J.K. Dobbins is projected 0.4 points ahead of Tyler Allgeier. In the 2025 season, a player projected that far ahead outscored the other 52% of the time. That's close to a coin flip: on these projections neither is the better start, and an injury report or a projection update before kickoff can tip it.

- J.K. Dobbins: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 6:20 AM ET
- Tyler Allgeier: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 6:20 AM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Sat, Oct 31, 6:27 AM ET.

| Same projections, scored | Dobbins | Allgeier |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 8.7 | 8.3 |
| Half PPR | 7.7 | 7.1 |
| Standard | 6.8 | 5.9 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 0.4 points or more in the other direction flips the call; Sleeper keeps adjusting its projections until kickoff, and this page reads them again at most an hour after it last did.
- Tyler Allgeier plays first (Sun 1:00 PM ET); once his game starts most platforms lock him in or out, before J.K. Dobbins's late news is known.
Open in Who should I start (your league, more players)
This week’s projections are Sleeper’s, scored with PPR settings. The percentage is how often a projected gap like this held up across the 2025 season; checked against 2026 games (not used to fit it), the stated chances so far run a few points high, so read a 60% call as nearer 55%.
