From the episode

I like Watkins for the downfield ability and the fit in the Shanahan offense.

Mentioned at 50:20 – 50:48

STACKED’s take

Positive signalSleeper

Watkins is a deep-league flyer in the Shanahan offense.

Jordan Watkins is a speculative add in deep leagues due to his fit in the Shanahan offense and potential downfield ability if injuries persist.
