What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Courtland Sutton (DEN WR), our WR49 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs KC, projecting 5.4 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 4.6 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. KC is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. 18% 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 Courtland Sutton (DEN WR), our WR49 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs KC, projecting 5.4 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 4.6 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. At home against KC, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. 18% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Tina keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
