What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Cade Otton (TB TE), our TE28 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs ATL, projecting 4.1 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 2.9 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. The vs ATL draw matters here — home snaps against ATL shape how often he's asked to do something. 1% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Sally keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Cade Otton (TB TE), our TE28 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs ATL, projecting 4.1 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina would rather take the cheaper, steadier option than 2.9 points of shortfall. 1% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Nothing in the projection defends him — 41% below positional par is a bench line for me. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
