THE ALTERNATIVE

THIS-WEEK PICKUP

WHY THIS PICKUP?
DeMario Douglas is the stronger immediate points option. Antonio Williams is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. For a WR vacancy, compare the immediate matchup with the weeks you actually need covered. A rising roster percentage can explain interest in a player; it does not increase his projected score. If you must drop someone, check the full roster in GamePlan before making the claim.
Antonio Williams projects for 7.5 Half-PPR points against PHI this week. His recent scoring average is 5.5 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 8.75%. He is rostered in 15.0% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 1.26 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
DeMario Douglas projects for 8.8 Half-PPR points against MIA this week. His recent scoring average is 13.5 FP. The defensive matchup reduces the FF estimate by 7.5%. He is rostered in 45.0% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 1.59 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
