From the episode

JK Dobbins, I'll do it right now because I have the Yahoo and the ESPN ADP Yahoo has them at RB 35 ESPN RB 33. And then if you look at Jordan Mason, Yahoo has an RB 44 ESPN RB 46. And to me, it's the exact same archetype.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Dobbins overpriced vs. Jordan Mason; no pass-catching upside justifies RB 30 ADP.

JJ Zachariason is not drafting JK Dobbins and argues there is no reason to reach for him in season-long leagues. Dobbins is being drafted as high as RB 30 (Yahoo RB 35, ESPN RB 33) but has the same archetype as Jordan Mason (RB 44–46), who has easier backfield competition. Dobbins was not used as a receiver last year, is coming off injury with a history of injuries, and is not a pass catcher. With the Jonah Coleman factor potentially limiting his work, Zachariason sees no upside and advocates for arbitraging Mason 50 picks later on ESPN instead.
