From the episode

the reason why I'm lower on him is because I don't trust the bears offense, but the third string quarterback against Vic Fangio...the Eagles are, uh, it makes me believe we have a safe one. Barkley week.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Smith ranked WR13 vs. consensus WR7; low team projection (23 pts) signals run-heavy script.

Hayden ranks DeVonta Smith WR13 vs. consensus WR7, citing concerns about the Eagles' game script and offensive volume. Smith has a hamstring injury (limited practice) but was excellent in Week 2 with 4 passes in the two-minute drill. The matchup vs. Chicago is excellent (Tyreek Stevenson cooked, Jalen Johnson involved), but Hayden worries the Eagles are only projected for 23 points—a full TD below comparable teams—suggesting a safe, run-heavy game script where Smith gets ~7 targets while others get 10+. This is a tier below his consensus rank.
