THIS-WEEK PICKUP

THE ALTERNATIVE

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Brian Thomas Jr. is the stronger immediate points option. Marvin Mims Jr. is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. For a WR 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.
Brian Thomas Jr. projects for 3.4 Standard points against BAL this week. His recent scoring average is 3.6 FP. He is rostered in 39.7% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.05 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Marvin Mims Jr. projects for 3.0 Standard points against CAR this week. His recent scoring average is 3.3 FP. The defensive matchup reduces the FF estimate by 1.25%. He is rostered in 0.7% 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.
