Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Punch List at 92% against Draft Paper's 51%. Punch List also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). Draft Paper's advantage is ratings volume (16K vs 27) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
