THIS-WEEK PICKUP

THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Detroit Lions is the stronger immediate points option. Detroit Lions 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.
Detroit Lions projects for 6.1 Standard points against MIN this week. He is rostered in 27.4% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 1.44 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Seattle Seahawks projects for 6.0 Standard points against CHI this week. He is rostered in 94.2% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.36 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
