What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks DJ Moore (BUF WR), our WR24 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 12.4 projected points with a hot Pepper Meter rating. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. 56% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. 12.4 projected points is roughly 24% more than the WR baseline, and that gap is the entire argument for the spot at WR24. Hot heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
