From the episode

DK Metcalf is a guy that I'm like, I just. It's high variance. You're never going to feel good playing them in a given week.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Metcalf is a high-variance, low-ceiling player in a messy Steelers offense.

The source classifies the entire Steelers offense as a 'do not draft' group, specifically noting that DK Metcalf is a high-variance player who does not fit well with Aaron Rodgers' current scheme. The source expects the Steelers to spread the ball around in 11 personnel, leading to a low-ceiling, frustrating experience for fantasy managers.
