What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Makai Lemon (PHI WR), our WR52 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 9.1 projected points with a spicy Pepper Meter rating. He grades 9% below the average weekly WR number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. He's without an opponent this week, which caps this at a roster-hold conversation. 3% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Spicy on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
