What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Kayshon Boutte (HOU WR), our WR97 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season (his team is on bye), projecting 1.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 8.2 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. Nothing in the projection defends him — 82% below positional par is a bench line for me. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. Sally keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Kayshon Boutte (HOU WR), our WR97 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season (his team is on bye), projecting 1.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina would rather take the cheaper, steadier option than 8.2 points of shortfall. Nothing in the projection defends him — 82% below positional par is a bench line for me. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
