What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Brenton Strange (JAX TE), our TE20 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 8.4 projected points with a hot Pepper Meter rating. He's without an opponent this week, which caps this at a roster-hold conversation. Only 23% of leagues roster him, so this is cheap production before the price goes up. The math is unsexy and convincing: 8.4 points, 20% above what the position pays out on average. Hot heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
