Jakobi Meyers

Once famous for catching a ton of passes without even one going for a touchdown, Meyers went on an unexpected binge the past two seasons, hitting paydirt six times in 14 games during his final season with New England and then 10 times (two rushing) in 16 games for the Raiders last year. His other numbers in his first Vegas season were solid but less impressive, with the 27-year-old grabbing 71 of 106 targets (67.0 percent) for 807 yards (11.4 YPR, 7.6 YPT). Most of his peripherals looked very similar to what he'd done in New England, including the catch rate, YPT, YPR, a 9.7 aDOT and a 3.4 YAC average. There's nothing that really stands out about Meyers, apart from reliable hands, though he at least plays faster than a 4.63 40 time back in 2019 seemed to suggest. He's never been a deep threat despite being reasonably tall (6-2, 200), and his work with the ball in his hands also fails to stand out. And yet, Meyers is undoubtedly a good player -- one who's added value to every team he's been on despite being stuck with bad QBs each year besides his rookie season (Tom Brady's final Patriots campaign). He's set for TD regression in 2024, especially after Gardner Minshew was the Raiders' "big" QB addition, and there's also some chance of a modest volume decline after the team drafted TE Brock Bowers in the first round. Bowers just might be good enough to step right in as the second option after WR Davante Adams, who took a step back last season but still commanded targets at his usual, dominant rate.
