From the video

I do I do like taking DJ Giddens's round 18. So, he's only expected to be on 7% of teams... he's only drafted in .7% of drafts period... that is really, really low for someone who is ostensibly the running back too for a team.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalSleeper

DJ Giddens is drafted in round 18 with only 0.7% expected ownership despite being ostensibly the running back two for his team, making him a significantly undervalued sleeper pick.
