From the episode

So Kenneth Gainwell just feels like an auto click. Like every time I'm in this range of the draft and I'm trying to play catch up at the running back position.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Gainwell is an undervalued, efficient pass-catching back with lead-back upside.

Kenneth Gainwell is an 'auto-click' value at RB39 (111th overall ADP) because he is an efficient, pass-catching back who could realistically push Bucky Irving for the lead-back role. Gainwell ranked 4th in yards per route run and 1st in first downs per route run last year, and the team's offseason moves suggest they won't simply hand Irving 300 touches.
