THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Pittsburgh Steelers is the stronger immediate points option. Tennessee Titans 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.
Pittsburgh Steelers projects for 9.7 Standard points against CLE this week. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 6.25%. He is rostered in 96.9% 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.
Tennessee Titans projects for 2.7 Standard points against CIN this week. He is rostered in 10.0% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 4.28 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
