The verdict
Jonathan Taylor
99%confident

Both projections are lies, says me. Taylor's lie is bigger, so he wins.

The calculator trimmed Cook from 16.8 to 15.6 and Taylor from 20 to 17.8. I deny both regressions professionally — but note which man was giving you twenty a game while carrying a 9 on the dog scale.

Cook is steady, available, fine. Taylor is the RB3 on our board going RB4 in rooms that should know better. Take the dog with the discount. 99%, no cardio required.

↻ Re-roll for Cook's quiet case. It's in the filing cabinet.
