What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Cyrus Allen (KC WR), our WR111 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at DEN, projecting 0.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 9.7 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. Nothing in the projection defends him — 97% below positional par is a bench line for me. The at DEN draw matters here — road snaps against DEN shape how often he's asked to do something. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Cyrus Allen (KC WR), our WR111 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at DEN, projecting 0.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 9.7 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. DEN is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. He grades 97% below the average weekly WR number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
