| 4/20/25 | Mark Daniels: Patriots should draft Will Campbell at No. 4. During the 2019 NFL Combine, I spoke with an NFL general manager, and he told me the brutal truth – no one knows what prospects will be great. Every year we see it when an undrafted free agent turns out to be better than a first-round pick. Jakobi Meyers, and his slow 40-yard dash time, is a great example. When the undrafted free agent entered Patriots training camp in 2019, it was obvious he was better than the team's first-round pick, N'Keal Harry.

This wide receiver class does not have many bona fide No. 1 star pass-catchers, but it has plenty of players who can be major contributors.

| 3/20/25 | Raiders named best fit for former rival WR. The Las Vegas Raiders have been relatively quiet in free agency this year but they still have some very big needs. One of the biggest needs is at wide receiver. Jakobi Meyers is very good but he's better-suited to be a No. 2 option.

| 3/18/25 | Latest Tre Tucker stat is concerning for Raiders WR room. The Las Vegas Raiders were an absolute mess on offense last season under head coach Antonio Pierce and offensive coordinators Luke Getsy and Scott Turner. Sub-par quarterback play and the worst rushing attack in the NFL were the main reasons why the offense could not reliably move the ball or score in 2024, but there were a handful of other issues as well. Center Andre James underperformed to begin the year and was eventually replaced by rookie Jackson Powers-Johnson, who slid over from guard. The team also needed another solid wide receiver next to Jakobi Meyers after Davante Adams was traded, but it seemed like nobody really stepped up for the Silver and Black.

| 3/17/25 | Geno Smith workout video stirs far too-easy Raiders free agent speculation. With the first week of free agency in the books, the Las Vegas Raiders still have some work to do to fill holes in the roster. The Raiders have an undeniable void at wide receiver, with Jakobi Meyers the only proven commodity there and he's not a proverbial WR1. Any possible pursuit of DK Metcalf before he was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers never really seemed to get much actual traction. The options in free agency have of course thinned quite a bit, but a signing would seem likely. Source: https://justblogbaby.com/geno-smith-workout-video-... |
| 3/15/25 | Raiders free agent proposal lands $100 million 5-time Pro Bowl playmaker.

| 3/13/25 | The Raiders Should Target Former AFC Rival in Free Agency. Jakobi Meyers did a solid enough job for them last year, but they need more wide receivers that can be productive. Another day passed in free agency, and more wide receivers are now off the market for them to target. Players like Jalen Reagor or veterans like Marquez Valdes-Scantling are not available anymore, and if the Raiders don't act soon, they'll find that they ran out of time.
