What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Jaylen Warren (PIT RB), our RB25 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 11.4 projected points with a spicy Pepper Meter rating. He's without an opponent this week, which caps this at a roster-hold conversation. 39% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. The math is unsexy and convincing: 11.4 points, 4% above what the position pays out on average. Spicy heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
