THE ALTERNATIVE

THIS-WEEK PICKUP

WHY THIS PICKUP?
Kenyon Sadiq is the stronger immediate points option. Eli Stowers 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.
Eli Stowers projects for 1.3 Standard points against NYG this week. His recent scoring average is 2.6 FP. He is rostered in 0.3% 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.
Kenyon Sadiq projects for 2.6 Standard points against KC this week. His recent scoring average is 1.3 FP. The defensive matchup raises the FF estimate by 5%. He is rostered in 19.9% of ESPN leagues, with a reported decline of 0.46 percentage points. Roster trends measure manager activity, not a guarantee of playing time or availability in your league.
