THE PICKUP CALL

THIS-WEEK PICKUP

THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Khalil Shakir is the stronger immediate points option. Rashod Bateman 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.
Khalil Shakir projects for 8.2 Half-PPR points against BAL this week. His recent scoring average is 10.4 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 1.25%. He is rostered in 60.1% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.75 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Rashod Bateman projects for 6.0 Half-PPR points against BUF this week. His recent scoring average is 4.3 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 10%. He is rostered in 10.7% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.25 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
