From the episode

I love Jalen Coker to be totally clear. Really fun player... But when it comes to I'm filling out my bench with dynasty assets that I want to gain value or to be worth something in the future, I think the Jalen Cokers of the world are not the bets to be making... he's on a rough offense, is clearly behind an established alpha in Tedaroa McMillan. Regardless of how fun a player you think he is, it's very hard to create the fantasy football upside scenario where he's a wide receiver two or better.

Coker is a roster clogger; behind McMillan on rough offense, unlikely to hit WR2.

Jakob Sanderson warns against drafting Jalen Coker in dynasty startup bench spots despite acknowledging he is a fun player; Coker is on a rough offense and is clearly behind established alpha Tedaroa McMillan, making it very hard to create a realistic fantasy upside scenario where he becomes a wide receiver two or better; Sanderson explicitly states Coker is not a good bet for gaining future value on a tanking dynasty team's bench.
