THIS-WEEK PICKUP

THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Elijah Mitchell is the stronger immediate points option. Sione Vaki is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. For a RB 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.
Elijah Mitchell projects for 7.3 PPR points against NYG this week. His recent scoring average is 7.0 FP. He is rostered in 9.8% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 6.63 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Sione Vaki projects for 3.9 PPR points against MIA this week. His recent scoring average is 4.3 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 1.25%. He is rostered in 1.0% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.31 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
