THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Chase McLaughlin is the stronger immediate points option. Chase McLaughlin 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.
Chase McLaughlin projects for 9.1 Standard points against ATL this week. His recent scoring average is 12.0 FP. He is rostered in 40.2% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 3.23 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Spencer Shrader projects for 8.9 Standard points against JAC this week. His recent scoring average is 11.0 FP. He is rostered in 86.4% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.62 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
