What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Najee Harris (NYG RB), our RB55 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 4.6 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. He's without an opponent this week, which caps this at a roster-hold conversation. He grades 58% below the average weekly RB number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
