What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks George Pickens (DAL WR), our WR13 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 14.1 projected points with a on fire Pepper Meter rating. The math is unsexy and convincing: 14.1 points, 41% above what the position pays out on average. He's without an opponent this week, which caps this at a roster-hold conversation. 95% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Add it up and you get a On Fire reading on the Pepper Meter — Sally isn't hedging on this one.
