What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Oronde Gadsden (LAC TE), our TE35 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 4.6 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Nothing in the projection defends him — 34% 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.
