From the episode

imagine if you drafted all this Jalen Wright, knowing that, okay, well, a chance is going to go down or if he goes down, right. It's going to be the biggest benefactor. And he was the RB two to start the season. And then he gets hurt, loses the job to Ali Gordon.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Wright's handcuff value evaporated after injury and job loss to Gordon.

Drafted as a handcuff with upside potential, Wright was the RB2 to start the season but got injured and lost the job to Ali Gordon; the investment in holding him has amounted to nothing.
