Expected to avoid PUP list per Jordan Renan of ESPN, a positive shift after weeks of negative injury news; JJ Zachariason drafted him at pick 44 (late round 3/early round 4) in half-PPR, warming to the risk-reward despite uncertainty about whether he'll practice next week or miss a few games to start the season; avoidance of the four-game minimum PUP designation is bullish relative to prior bearish reports.

0:00The one thing that was most interesting
0:02to me uh was a bit of positive Malik
0:05Neighbors news. So this was from Jordan
0:08Renan of ESPN. Obviously very plugged in
0:12with the Giants. He said that I believe
0:16he reported it was likely that Neighbors
0:19is going to or maybe not likely but
0:21expected to avoid the pup list. Um, so I
0:24thought again
0:26that could still mean he misses multiple
0:28games to to start the season doesn't
0:30mean he's ready week one, but in a
0:33season or in an offseason where I feel
0:35like we only got negative neighbors
0:37news, this does seem like a slight
0:39positive indication. And I actually I
0:42drafted a team today. I think it was my
0:44first neighbor share of the season. He
0:45fell to pick 44. I think I'm starting to
0:48warm to him, you know, late late round
0:51three, early round four on half PPR. I
0:54feel like the the riskreward starts to
0:57starts to be worth it to me there,
0:59especially with this latest news.
1:00Curious what you think.
1:01>> I I have been drafting him some in the
1:03fourth. I think he's a fine pick in the
1:05fourth. Um I don't my my assumption on
1:09Neighbors has been that he will fall
1:12more. Um, but if he
1:17does, I mean, part of the the report was
1:21sort of like uh a little bit ambiguous
1:23as like what we were even talking about.
1:25Like are you saying he's going to avoid
1:26pup by the time we get through training
1:28camp? Is he not going to go on the
1:30training camp pup, which he can pull
1:32players off of?
1:34>> Like how bullish is this? Like if he
1:36were to like be practicing next week,
1:39that would be extremely bullish. if he's
1:42going to miss a few games to start the
1:44year, but hopefully avoid missing a a
1:47lockedin minimum of four games.
1:51That's not, you know, that's better than
1:52him missing four games minimum, but it's
1:54not super bullish. So, it's a little bit
1:57I think I'm still up in the air as far
1:59as like what this even means right now,
2:02but it's it's at least a little bit more
2:04in the bullish direction to your point
2:06where we've heard almost only bearish
2:08stuff for a while now. Um,
