THE ALTERNATIVE

THIS-WEEK PICKUP

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Isaiah Likely 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.
Harold Fannin Jr. projects for 9.3 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 84.9% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.07 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Isaiah Likely projects for 10.5 Half-PPR points against PHI this week. His recent scoring average is 11.6 FP. The defensive matchup reduces the FF estimate by 7.5%. He is rostered in 94.6% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.15 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
