From the article

Smith was one of the worst quarterbacks in terms of air yards per completion (4.3), down there with Bo Nix (4.8), Bryce Young (4.8) and Tua Tagovailoa (4.7). You could reason Wilson gives him a chance to improve that number. But are you willing to risk drafting Wilson in the hope that Smith gets better?

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Smith's 4.3 air yards per completion makes Wilson a risky draft despite upside potential.

Garrett Wilson's upside with Geno Smith is uncertain. Smith ranked among the worst quarterbacks in air yards per completion (4.3), alongside Bo Nix (4.8), Bryce Young (4.8), and Tua Tagovailoa (4.7). While Wilson could help Smith improve that metric, the source questions whether drafting Wilson is worth the risk of hoping Smith gets better.
