From the episode

he's a size freak. And so I think there's a very real chance we get some videos of him mossing defenders and all of a sudden we get the hype train going about how he's going to be using the red zone.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Fields' size and red-zone role could spark hype despite mediocre college tape.

JJ Zachariason acknowledges Malachi Fields is not a strong prospect—he had mediocre age-adjusted collegiate production over five years and separation issues—but sees a real breakout opportunity given his size (he's a "size freak") and the opening in the Giants offense. Zachariason expects highlight-reel "mossing defenders" moments that could spark hype, especially in the red zone, and has been drafting Fields around round 20 alongside Jackson Dart to get exposure to the Giants offense, particularly with the injury to Neighbors.
