THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Chicago Bears is the stronger immediate points option. Chicago Bears is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. For a D/ST 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.
Chicago Bears projects for 5.8 Standard points against SEA this week. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 2.5%. He is rostered in 24.2% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 4.26 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Philadelphia Eagles projects for 4.8 Standard points against WAS this week. He is rostered in 36.5% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 1.28 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
