From the episode

He was the QB seven before he got hurt last season. He was rushing to drop off last year, and now he's coming off a major injury to his leg, to his knee. So that's what could limit his upside.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jones' knee injury and unsustainable TD pace limit QB1 upside despite QB7 ranking.

Was QB7 before getting hurt last season; coming off a major knee injury that could limit his upside. The Giants' offense was pumping out 3.5 touchdowns per game last year, which is unsustainable year-to-year. Additionally, there's massive depth at QB, making him less of a priority despite his previous production.
