From the episode

I really need to see a single report that says Puka seems very focused and I'm like, he should probably be like the first pick... I saw him, I saw him getting golf lessons on, online.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Top-tier WR with clear role; safer pick than JSN

Puka Nacua appears very focused this offseason (evidenced by golf lessons), which the source interprets as a positive sign for his 2024 season. The source suggests he should be considered a top-tier wide receiver pick and is safer than Jalen Smith-Njigba due to lack of offensive uncertainty.
