STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Darnold's positive regression signal is a trap; Seattle's pass-averse scheme overrides math.

Darnold grades as a mild positive-regression buy mechanically, but the source identifies it as a trap. Seattle finished 25th in neutral passing rate and dead last in passing rate when trailing, an offense built to not throw. He is a real-life success and a fantasy avoid regardless of what his touchdown rate does.
