From the episode

Michael Penix has looked really good over these first few games back. He's just feeding his weapons... he could be drafted as like a top 12 quarterback in startups next season.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Penix rising to 2028 first value; projects as top-12 QB in startups.

Penix is a breakout candidate the source has been buying in dynasty portfolios. He was drafted too low as a suspected starting quarterback and has looked really good since being rushed back due to Tua's poor play. Penix is feeding his weapons (Drake London, Kyle Pitts) and recently beat the 49ers. The source values him around a 2028 first (comparable to Casey Concepcion, Omar Cooper), potentially rising to a late first or early second. The source projects Penix could be drafted as a top-12 quarterback in startups next season, realistic given his career trajectory and ability to play into his 30s.
