Davis Mattek on Dak Prescott

VideoStop Drafting Running Backs Like An IdiotJune 13, 2026

From the video

we're going to take Dak Prescott here because we don't want to be too far behind a quarterback and the guys available at the next turn, honestly, these days they're not always there. Sometimes Mahomes will be gone, uh Justin Herbert will be gone, Trevor Lawrence is likely to be gone by the time we come up to our next pick at 95 and 98.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Drafted at pick 74 to avoid QB deficit; necessary but not preferred value pick.

Davis Mattek selected Dak Prescott at pick 74 in best ball to avoid falling too far behind at the quarterback position, noting that being behind at QB in best ball is too hard to overcome. Mattek emphasizes that top quarterbacks like Mahomes, Justin Herbert, and Trevor Lawrence are likely gone by the next turn at picks 95–98, making it difficult to recover from a quarterback deficit. Prescott serves as the primary QB in Mattek's final roster, paired with Brock Purdy as a two-QB strategy.
