THE ALTERNATIVE

THIS-WEEK PICKUP

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Harold Fannin Jr. is the stronger immediate points option. Chig Okonkwo is more widely available across ESPN leagues, but league-wide ownership cannot tell us who is available in yours. For a TE 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.
Chig Okonkwo projects for 4.5 Standard points against LAR this week. His recent scoring average is 4.0 FP. The defensive matchup reduces the FF estimate by 3.75%. He is rostered in 15.5% of ESPN leagues, with a reported gain of 0.01 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
Harold Fannin Jr. projects for 7.0 Standard points against NO this week. His recent scoring average is 7.1 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 2.5%. He is rostered in 85.0% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.03 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
