What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Omarion Hampton (LAC RB), our RB34 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at LAR, projecting 5.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 5.2 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. LAR is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. 25% 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 Omarion Hampton (LAC RB), our RB34 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at LAR, projecting 5.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 5.2 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. The projection sits about 47% under what a startable RB returns, so I honestly can't pretend the price tag matches the output. On the road against LAR, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
