From the episode

They drafted Fernando Mendoza, obviously, you know, number one pick Heisman national champion undefeated. I forget there's like four guys ever that have done that. And I actually believe that he will not play until he's better than Kirk cousins for this year.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Mendoza drafted first overall but won't start until better than Cousins.

The Raiders drafted Mendoza as the number one pick and Heisman national champion with an undefeated record; the source believes Mendoza will not play until he is better than Kirk Cousins, whether that means Cousins plays poorly, Mendoza plays amazingly, or Cousins gets injured; the source expects the Raiders to play Cousins until they believe Mendoza gives them a better shot at winning.
