Nabers' rising price reflects hype; health doesn't guarantee WR1 repeat.

Malik Nabers exemplifies the post-hype sleeper cycle risk. After an electric rookie year, his price has crept up with every positive health update, and if healthy, he'd be a first-round pick. However, the source cautions that evaluation of his health situation doesn't guarantee he'll be a WR1 again, illustrating how hype can pull valuations too far ahead of realistic outcomes. The hit rate on post-hype sleepers for WRs sits at approximately 50%, a coin flip.
