THE PICKUP CALL

THE ALTERNATIVE

THIS-WEEK PICKUP

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Pat Freiermuth is the stronger immediate points option. Kenyon Sadiq 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.
Kenyon Sadiq projects for 4.4 PPR points against LV this week. His recent scoring average is 1.4 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 6.25%. He is rostered in 23.1% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.86 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Pat Freiermuth projects for 8.9 PPR points against CLE this week. His recent scoring average is 9.5 FP. He is rostered in 49.8% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 1.45 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
