What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Alec Pierce (IND WR), our WR37 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 10.9 projected points with a spicy Pepper Meter rating. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. 8% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. 10.9 projected points is roughly 9% more than the WR baseline, and that gap is the entire argument for the spot at WR37. Spicy heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
