What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Efton Chism III (NE WR), our WR82 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at MIA, projecting 3.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 6.7 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. On the road against MIA, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. 1% 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 Efton Chism III (NE WR), our WR82 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at MIA, projecting 3.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina would rather take the cheaper, steadier option than 6.7 points of shortfall. Facing MIA away from home, the script reads neutral to friendly, not scary. 1% 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.
