From the episode

I actually think it's worth overspending for a handcuff because okay it's it's so clear that he is the handcuff and it's so clear that he would probably maybe not be quite as valuable as Walker but honestly be kind of close if he got the job

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Worth overspending for Johnson (2027 2nd+) to secure a top-5 RB insurance.

The source recommends overspending for Emmitt Johnson as a handcuff in dynasty formats, suggesting that trading a 2027 second-round pick or similar capital is justified because Johnson is so clearly the handcuff and would likely be close to Walker's value if he got the job. This is framed as a rare case where overpaying for a handcuff makes sense to ensure a top-five running back this season.
