STACKED’s take

Positive signalBust

Mayer's 5.5 targets average yields only 7.2 PPG; Bowers' return imminent.

Mayer has strong route and target metrics with Brock Bowers sidelined: 81% route share, 22% target participation rate, 19% target share, and 5.5 targets per game average. However, this volume has not translated to fantasy production—he's averaging just 27.5 receiving yards and 7.2 PPR points per game. Adam Pfeifer warns that Bowers could make his season debut in Week 3, which would render Mayer useless. Even if Bowers misses another week, other waiver wire tight ends like Dalton Schultz, Hunter Henry, and Darren Waller project as well or better than Mayer.
