2025 Fantasy Outlook
Meyers had per-target numbers right around his career averages last season, despite getting a career-high 129 targets while playing with bad quarterbacks in one of the league's worst offenses. A pair of missed games didn't stop him from reaching 1,000 yards for the first time, with 68.5 yards per game crushing his previous career high of 57.4 (2022). It's tempting to assume Meyers will fare even better after the Raiders traded for QB Geno Smith and did nothing to add target competition in free agency. The problem with that assumption is that Meyers' per-route production in 2024 was right around his established norms. The boost in counting stats was a product of rarely leaving the field -- 91.5 percent snap share in his active games -- in an offense that attempted the fourth most passes. Now playing under HC Pete Carroll and OC Chip Kelly while sharing the field with rookie running back Ashton Jeanty, there's not much chance of Meyers approaching last year's per-game route volume. There's also not much chance of drawing more targets than star tight end Brock Bowers, although competition for Smith's attention otherwise looks weak, with Meyers joined at WR by Tre Tucker and second-round rookie Jack Bech.

Still top wideout in Vegas
As the Raiders' first training camp practice approaches, Meyers remains locked in as a starter in the team's wide receiver corps, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Though Meyers can also line up outside, most of his reps during OTAs came in the slot. After recording an 87-1,027-4 receiving line on a career high 129 targets over 15 regular-season games in 2024, the sure-handed pass catcher seems poised to maintain steady volume in an offense that is now helmed by veteran QB Geno Smith, who should represent an upgrade over Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell. While Meyers remains entrenched as the Raiders' WR1, it's a three-man competition between Tre Tucker, Jack Bech and Dont'e Thornton for slotting behind the 28-year-old.

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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
May stick in slot
Meyers spent most of his time in the slot during OTAs, and he could continue to line up inside during the regular season, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Raiders have remade their offense this offseason, with Meyers and Brock Bowers the primary skill-position holdovers from 2024. Meyers' alignment during training camp could offer clues as to how the rest of the revamped wide receiver corps will line up. Having the veteran wideout play primarily in the slot would be detrimental to rookie Jack Bech, who was inconsistent on the outside during offseason practices.
