What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Jake Elliott (PHI K), our K31 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at WSH, projecting 3.2 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 4.3 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. The projection sits about 57% under what a startable K returns, so I can't pretend the price tag matches the output. On the road against WSH, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Jake Elliott (PHI K), our K31 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at WSH, projecting 3.2 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 4.3 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. On the road against WSH, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. 5% 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.
