PodcastLate-Round Perspectives: Alan SeslowskyCaptured June 19, 2026

From the episode

You know that Josh Allen can give you X amount of warp... If you draft Josh Allen in the second round of your redraft league, number one, there's an opportunity cost in doing that... But if you do that and then Lamar Jackson goes in round nine, Lamar Jackson is by far the better value in that situation.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Josh Allen can provide significant WARP advantage over other quarterbacks, but drafting him in round two carries opportunity cost by missing elite running backs; his value improves if other elite QBs are taken early, making him a better value in round three if the QB run happens.
