What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks J.K. Dobbins (DEN RB), our RB33 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 10.3 projected points with a spicy Pepper Meter rating. He's without an opponent this week, which caps this at a roster-hold conversation. 11% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. He grades 6% below the average weekly RB number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. Sally keeps him at Spicy until the usage says otherwise.
