WHY THIS PICKUP?

Fit the move to the job.

Ryan Flournoy is the stronger immediate points option. Roschon Johnson is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. These players share FLEX eligibility; check whether you also need one of them in a dedicated RB, WR or TE slot. 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.

Roschon Johnson

Roschon Johnson projects for 2.4 PPR points against SEA this week. His recent scoring average is 8.3 FP. He is rostered in 11.0% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 1.99 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.

THE HOLD, NOT JUST THE CLAIM

What comes after this week?

Future FF estimates are separate from the current-week pickup call. Totals describe the player, not extra points for your roster. Weeks 15–18 are a calendar view; your league’s playoff weeks may differ. Green highlights the higher displayed projection when both outlooks are known; ties and incomplete comparisons stay neutral.
