What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks RJ Harvey (DEN RB), our RB42 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 8.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Nothing in the projection defends him — 20% below positional par is a bench line for me. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. 5% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
