THE PICKUP CALL

THE ALTERNATIVE

THIS-WEEK PICKUP

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Keon Coleman is the stronger immediate points option. Keon Coleman 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.
Brian Thomas Jr. projects for 3.0 Half-PPR points against IND this week. His recent scoring average is 0.0 FP. He is rostered in 40.6% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.73 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Keon Coleman projects for 7.4 Half-PPR points against BAL this week. His recent scoring average is 10.6 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 1.25%. He is rostered in 28.3% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.22 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
