What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Will Mallory (IND TE), our TE41 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at JAX, projecting 0.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 6.2 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. On the road against JAX, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. The projection sits about 89% under what a startable TE returns, so I can't pretend the price tag matches the output. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Will Mallory (IND TE), our TE41 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at JAX, projecting 0.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 6.2 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. On the road against JAX, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. The projection sits about 89% under what a startable TE returns, so I honestly can't pretend the price tag matches the output. Tina keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
