Jakobi Meyers

The 4-13 Raiders closed the 2024 regular season on a two-win streak, pushing their 2025 NFL draft spot down to the sixth overall pick. With no long-term quarterback options in-house, the Raiders must now convince Johnson that they are willing to somehow acquire their quarterback of the future despite their self-sabotaging, late-season competitiveness. Securing an interview with the highly coveted offensive coordinator is at least one positive step toward turning this franchise around. Players like Brock Bowers, Jakobi Meyers and an above-average offensive line could at least provide Johnson with offensive building blocks.

The Raiders fired HC Antonio Pierce. He gave Vegas a spark after taking over midway through last season, going 5-4 over the final nine games. But Pierce flamed out in 2024, winning just four games. The Raiders ranked bottom six in points and total yards, with WR Jakobi Meyers and TE Brock Bowers the only reliable fantasy assets. We'll see who the Raiders tab to replace Pierce -- and what they do at QB. They hold the sixth overall pick of this spring's draft.

Meyers recorded nine receptions on 10 targets for 123 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Chargers.

Meyers entered the week needing a big game to cross 1,000 yards for the first time in his career. He got there and then some through a handful of chunk plays, capping a career year in style for the veteran wideout. Meyers finished the season with 87 grabs for 1,027 yards and four scores. The former Patriot started the year slowly, playing third-fiddle to Davante Adams and rookie sensation Brock Bowers. That didn't last long as Adams suffered a hamstring injury and was subsequently traded to the Jets. Meyers also missed time of his own with an injury but hit the ground running once healthy. All three of his 100-yard games and as many of his touchdowns came post-Adams. At 28 years old, Meyers has likely reached his peak as an NFL receiver, but high-end WR2 numbers are nothing to laugh at. Entering a contract year, Meyers will look to keep up the strong pace in search of either an extension or a new deal on the open market in 2026.
