What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Jaylen Wright (MIA RB), our RB61 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs NE, projecting 2.9 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 8.1 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. Nothing in the projection defends him — 74% below positional par is a bench line for me. He's listed questionable as of the update below; my rank assumes he plays, and designations move fast. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Jaylen Wright (MIA RB), our RB61 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs NE, projecting 2.9 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 8.1 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. At home against NE, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. He's listed questionable as of the update below; my rank assumes he plays, and designations move fast. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
