From the episode
I think if I were to say which one has the higher upside, I think that Jalen Warren can do more with reception...Can I fathom a world where Jalen Warren is the clear and defined three down back in all aspects over Rico Dowdle? Yeah, I could buy that as a scenario...the amount of times that we have counted out Jalen Warren for it to end up just being Jalen Warren is kind of ridiculous.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalRole
Warren's receiving upside and pass protection edge Dowdle; could be the clear three-down back.
Warren is ranked RB27 in ADP, just one round ahead of Rico Dowdle (RB31), but the source believes Warren has higher upside due to his superior receiving ability and pass protection skills compared to Dowdle. The source notes that Warren has been repeatedly counted out, yet consistently ends up being the better back in the offense. While a committee is possible under Mike McCarthy, the source can fathom a scenario where Warren becomes the clear three-down back over Dowdle. Warren is preferred over Ramondre Stevenson because at least one Pittsburgh running back will consistently have value, whereas Henderson could completely take over for Stevenson.
