Davis Mattek targets Malik Nabers despite health uncertainty (PUP/IR risk) because of exceptional projected value. Nabers projects for 16–17 DraftKings points in full PPR in week 17, which Mattek views as an advantage that cannot be recreated elsewhere on the draft board. The health uncertainty is framed as a gift to drafters; Mattek acknowledges not wanting 25% exposure but prioritizes winning the $3 million contest over week-one performance. Nabers was rostered in Mattek's final draft build.PositiveValueMay 22, 2026
