What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks AJ Dillon (CAR RB), our RB65 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at GB, projecting 2.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 8.7 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. On the road against GB, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. The projection sits about 79% under what a startable RB returns, so I can't pretend the price tag matches the output. Sally keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks AJ Dillon (CAR RB), our RB65 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at GB, projecting 2.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 8.7 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. GB is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. He grades 79% below the average weekly RB number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. Tina keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
