From the article
McGowan's last-round capital means he's cheap enough to throw on your roster either as a JT insurance policy or as a speculative final pick.
STACKED’s take
McGowan's last-round price makes him viable Taylor injury insurance with upside.
McGowan (DraftKings ADP 223.1, Underdog ADP 211.0) is positioned as a speculative dart throw and insurance policy on Jonathan Taylor. Taylor dominated snaps last season with an 82.5% snap share (highest among all running backs) and 879 snaps (third-most), but missed 6, 7, and 3 games in the three seasons prior to 2025. The source acknowledges Taylor is not injury-prone but notes that running backs with heavy workloads have higher injury risk. McGowan, a soon-to-be 25-year-old rookie, was held back by off-field issues (2021-2023) but posted solid recent seasons, earned a combine invite, and recorded impressive jumps and a 4.49 40-yard dash for a 223-pound back. His last-round capital makes him cheap enough to roster as either JT insurance or a speculative final pick.
