From the episode
Lad, I mean, so it was the rib and week one, then it was the foot. Now he's got a concussion... Fortunately, they have the buy coming up. So I would expect him back week eight... this actually may be a buy low candidate... the whole team playing bad means they're going to probably be playing catch up in a lot of games. And we like that garbage time for guys like lad.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalValue
McConkey is a buy-low with bye timing helping injury recovery and garbage time upside.
Lad McConkey is a buy-low candidate despite injury concerns; he has a concussion (expected to sideline him ~1 week, with the Chargers' bye coming up, so he should return Week 8), plus prior rib and foot injuries that will have time to heal during the bye. Scott notes the Chargers' poor team performance means garbage-time volume for McConkey, making him a smart add if your bench is deep enough and your WR room is already solid.
