THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Andre Szmyt is the stronger immediate points option. Andre Szmyt is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. For a K 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.
Andre Szmyt projects for 8.3 Standard points against NO this week. His recent scoring average is 7.3 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 2.5%. He is rostered in 3.8% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.37 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Dominic Zvada projects for 8.2 Standard points against PHI this week. He is rostered in 35.3% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 4.02 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
