Emanuel Wilson vs Woody Marks: Who Should You Start?

If you are choosing between Emanuel Wilson and Woody Marks for your lineup, you are not alone. Emanuel Wilson finished the 2025 season at 5.1 PPG for the Seattle Seahawks (17 games), and Woody Marks averaged 8.7 for the Houston Texans (16 games).

That 3.6-point weekly advantage for Woody Marks is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Emanuel Wilson ran for 496 yards and 3 touchdowns; Woody Marks posted 703 and 2. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

One scheduling note: Emanuel Wilson is off Week 10 and Woody Marks Week 14. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
