Decision rule

Treat the gap like a tiebreaker.

Contenders can use the redraft row to justify a short-term preference, while dynasty managers should keep any added value tied to the measured gap.

Yes, the current baseline supports treating David Montgomery and Josh Jacobs as straight-up trade peers. A manager can still prefer either side, but the model does not support a large automatic add. Recent usage and listed availability provide context, but starting-lineup need and manager-specific preference remain outside the model.
