THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Philadelphia Eagles is the stronger immediate points option. Philadelphia Eagles 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.
Philadelphia Eagles projects for 6.3 Standard points against NYG this week. He is rostered in 33.9% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.35 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
San Francisco 49ers projects for 5.9 Standard points against LV this week. The defensive matchup reduces the FF estimate by 3.75%. He is rostered in 37.5% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.35 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
