From the episode

I just have not been drafting Trey McBride... I'm just much more excited about Bowers than I am McBride... I think we're going to see a little bit of a step back from McBride... I don't think he comes close to what he did last year.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

McBride's ADP (20-28 overall) is too early; Bowers is the preferred early tight end.

McBride is going as tight end 1 on Fantasy Pros (20th overall) and tight end 2 on CBS (28th overall), but the source has not been drafting him and prefers Bowers at the turn. The source expects a step back from McBride's prior production and does not think he will annihilate the field like last year; if taking a tight end early, Bowers is the easier choice. McBride should still be the second tight end off the board but is overvalued relative to his expected output.
