What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks CeeDee Lamb (DAL WR), our WR5 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs ARI, projecting 11.4 projected points with a hot Pepper Meter rating. For Sally this is a volume bet, and the volume is there: 1.4 points clear of the starter baseline. The math is unsexy and convincing: 11.4 points, 14% above what the position pays out on average. ARI is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. Sally keeps the Pepper Meter at Hot here because the ceiling is capped, not the role.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks CeeDee Lamb (DAL WR), our WR5 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs ARI, projecting 11.4 projected points with a hot Pepper Meter rating. Tina plays contrarian — with 99% start rate he's priced in, and she cares more about his floor than his name. Lamb clears the WR bar by about 14%, which is why he sits this high on my board. The vs ARI draw matters here — home snaps against ARI shape how often he's asked to do something. Tina keeps the Pepper Meter at Hot here because the ceiling is capped, not the role.
