From the episode

It's not that we don't want Josh Allen on our fantasy teams. It's that drafting Josh Allen means you're missing out on some really good running backs and wide receivers.

STACKED’s take

NeutralValue

Early Josh Allen draft pick carries high opportunity cost vs. late-round QB strategy.

JJ Zachariason notes that while Josh Allen is a desirable fantasy asset, drafting him early carries massive opportunity cost by preventing selection of strong running backs and wide receivers available later; the strategy of waiting on quarterback and taking multiple late-round options is preferable to spending early draft capital on elite quarterbacks.
