From the episode

if we're talking $100 budget and you get McCaffrey for about $25 and black for $1, it's not that bad because I think the only risk we feel like with McCaffrey is injury. We know if he plays it's going to be really good.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

McCaffrey at $25 with $1 handcuff insurance is sound auction strategy.

In a $100 auction budget, acquiring McCaffrey for ~$25 and his handcuff (likely Isaac Guerendo or similar) for $1 is a reasonable strategy. The only material risk is injury; if McCaffrey plays, production is expected to be strong, making the $1 handcuff insurance a worthwhile hedge.
