What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Travis Hunter (JAX WR), our WR99 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs IND, projecting 1.6 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 8.4 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. 2% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. 1.6 points is roughly 84% short of the WR baseline, and I rank on output, not name recognition. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Travis Hunter (JAX WR), our WR99 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs IND, projecting 1.6 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina would rather take the cheaper, steadier option than 8.4 points of shortfall. 2% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Nothing in the projection defends him — 84% below positional par is a bench line for me. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
