What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Eagles D/ST (PHI DST), our DST7 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 6.3 projected points with a spicy Pepper Meter rating. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. He's still in 79% of lineups at 88% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. 6.3 points is roughly 3% short of the DST baseline, and I rank on output, not name recognition. Spicy heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
