What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Jaguars D/ST (JAX DST), our DST20 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 4.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. The projection sits about 31% under what a startable DST returns, so I can't pretend the price tag matches the output. He's without an opponent this week, which caps this at a roster-hold conversation. He's still in 64% of lineups at 67% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
