RotoWire NFL Articles on Michael Mayer
From the article
Michael Mayer has to be one of the most talented TE2s on any roster and would be starting in many other places...The Raiders would be wise to get him more involved in the passing game given the dearth of options outside of Bowers.
STACKED’s take
Mayer's talent and Raiders' weak receiver room position him for increased snap share.
Mayer (DraftKings ADP 226.0, Underdog ADP 213.8) is positioned as a talented TE2 who should play plenty of snaps and run enough routes for reasonable weekly target projection. The source notes that the Raiders' receiving corps is historically weak—no receiver drafted before the 12th round except Tre Tucker, and only two with actual ADP (Jalen Nailor at 157.9)—making Las Vegas a candidate for two-tight-end sets. The source's draft the source brain suggests more talent in Mayer than current numbers reflect, and the Raiders would be wise to involve him more given the dearth of options outside Brock Bowers. Additionally, it's a contract year for Mayer, which could incentivize increased usage.
