THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
George Kittle is the stronger immediate points option. Harold Fannin Jr. is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. For a TE 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.
George Kittle projects for 14.6 Half-PPR points against LV this week. His recent scoring average is 13.1 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 6.25%. He is rostered in 98.5% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.03 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Harold Fannin Jr. projects for 9.8 Half-PPR points against NO this week. His recent scoring average is 10.0 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 3.75%. He is rostered in 89.6% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.14 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
