What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Jerry Jeudy (CLE WR), our WR83 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at PIT, projecting 3.2 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 6.8 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. 1% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Nothing in the projection defends him — 68% below positional par is a bench line for me. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Jerry Jeudy (CLE WR), our WR83 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at PIT, projecting 3.2 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 6.8 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. 1% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. The projection sits about 68% under what a startable WR returns, so I honestly can't pretend the price tag matches the output. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
