From the episode

He's somebody that I had ranked in the wide receiver to range this week... I think you can make the argument that he's like wide receiver 16 because the usage is going to be easily in the top 10 through the first three weeks.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Matthew Golden's top-10 usage and favorable matchups support WR16–20 rest-of-season ranking.

Matthew Golden posted 100 receiving yards and a touchdown in his 'coming out party' performance, with Winks ranking him as a low-end WR2 for the week. Winks argues Golden could be ranked as WR16–WR20 rest-of-season because his usage through three weeks is 'easily in the top 10' and possibly higher. Golden showed standout traits despite some drops and miscommunications, including a back-shoulder catch over the corner and a tight-area touchdown grab. Winks notes the volume will be there and the matchups are favorable (Buccaneers next week, then banged-up Bears secondary).
