What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Brock Bowers (LV TE), our TE2 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at NYJ, projecting 9.0 projected points with a hot Pepper Meter rating. Sally doesn't overthink it — that's 2 points of upside over the position line, so he plays. 97% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. 9 projected points is roughly 29% more than the TE baseline, and that gap is the entire argument for the spot at TE2. Hot on the Pepper Meter reflects a steady weekly floor rather than a boom week — that's still a start.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Brock Bowers (LV TE), our TE2 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at NYJ, projecting 9.0 projected points with a hot Pepper Meter rating. Tina's pushback: 97% of leagues start him, so you gain nothing on your opponent here — the edge is elsewhere. NYJ is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. 97% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Hot heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
