THIS-WEEK PICKUP

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Kyle McCord is the stronger immediate points option. Kyle McCord is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. For a QB 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.
Daniel Jones projects for 12.1 Standard points against MIA this week. His recent scoring average is 6.8 FP. He is rostered in 11.2% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.00 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Kyle McCord projects for 13.3 Standard points against IND this week. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 8.75%. He is rostered in 0.5% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.42 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
