Different size brisket

Good morning,
Overnight tonight I am planning to smoke 2 brisket in my wsm 22"
I have had several successful briskets in the 2 months since I got the WSM. However, not sure what to do with these two hunks of meat. 1 is 14.1# and the other is 9.3#.
Both Black Angus Choice whole Brisket. Planning to cook low and slow. 225 to an internal of 150-160 and then Texas crutch until tender.
Should I be giving the larger one a head start? How long?

Thanks in advance for your advice. The wealth of knowledge on here is astounding.
Respectfully,
 
To take the guess work out of it I'd start them at the same time and then just take the small one off and hold it in a cooler till the larger one is done. Or start the larger one 2-3 hours before the small one.
 
I might try smaller one on whichever grate has lowest temp and stager start times. You can always foil and hold if one is done first.
