What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Spencer Shrader (IND K), our K3 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at JAX, projecting 6.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's angle is simple: he's a top-three K on our board, and she never benches the guys who win weeks. He's still in 80% of lineups at 86% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. 6.3 points is roughly 16% short of the K baseline, and I rank on output, not name recognition. Mild on the Pepper Meter reflects a steady weekly floor rather than a boom week — that's still a start.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Spencer Shrader (IND K), our K3 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at JAX, projecting 6.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina plays contrarian — with 80% start rate he's priced in, and she cares more about his floor than his name. He's still in 80% of lineups at 86% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. Nothing in the projection defends him — 16% below positional par is a bench line for me. Mild on the Pepper Meter reflects a steady weekly floor rather than a boom week — that's still a start.
