From the episode

Lad McConkie is a big one...McDaniels Dolphins led the league in their rate of dropbacks that included motion 69% of plays...McConkie for his career has averaged a 22 and a half percent target share from motion...he averaged a 22.9% target share for 15 points per game in 2024 his rookie year, which everyone then chased in the second round...I'm just going right back in a significantly improved offense.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

McConkey's 22.5% motion target share and improved offense suggest value below second-round ADP.

Ladd McConkey is a focal point of Zachariason's draft strategy. McDaniels' Dolphins led the league in dropback rate that included motion at 69% of plays during his four-year tenure. McConkey has averaged a 22.5% target share from motion for his career. In 2024 his rookie year, he averaged a 22.9% target share for 15 PPG, which led to him being chased in the second round at last year's ADP. Zachariason is backing McConkey in a significantly improved offense, implying he expects better production at a lower ADP than his rookie-year chase.
