BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR34
ANALYSIS: Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has been a solid fantasy football flex option despite playing on an awful offense. The veteran wide receiver is the WR45 for the year, averaging 10.4 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. He missed two games because of an ankle injury but returned last week against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Meyers had a solid Week 8 performance, totaling six receptions on seven targets for 52 receiving yards, a touchdown, and 14.2 fantasy points. The veteran has seen at least seven targets in four consecutive games. Furthermore, he leads the Raiders in target share in the games without Davante Adams this year (30.8%).
Raiders target shares in three games with Jakobi Meyers + without Davante Adams:
Jakobi Meyers 30.8% (26)
Brock Bowers 21.4% (20)— John Daigle (@notJDaigle) October 28, 2024
Fantasy players can start Meyers this week as a low-end WR2 or high-end flex option. He faces a Cincinnati Bengals defense that has surrendered 25.8 fantasy points per game to wide receivers, slightly below the league average.
