THE PICKUP CALL

THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Nico Collins is the stronger immediate points option. Rashee Rice 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.
Nico Collins projects for 11.8 Half-PPR points against LAC this week. His recent scoring average is 5.5 FP. He is rostered in 98.7% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.11 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Rashee Rice projects for 11.5 Half-PPR points against NYJ this week. His recent scoring average is 14.8 FP. He is rostered in 94.9% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.04 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
