What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Makai Lemon (PHI WR), our WR77 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at WSH, projecting 3.7 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 6.3 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. WSH is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. 7% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Sally keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Makai Lemon (PHI WR), our WR77 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at WSH, projecting 3.7 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 6.3 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. 7% 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.
