Fitzmaurice's #1 pick: Bowers projects as WR1-level TE with elite QB upgrade, ceiling to break fantasy.
Pat Fitzmaurice names Brock Bowers his number one league-winner pick, citing his rookie 2024 production of 112 catches for 1,194 yards and five touchdowns (tight end one in fantasy scoring, third among all pass catchers in receptions, sixth in targets, eighth in receiving yardage, ninth in PPR points) despite playing with Gardner Minshew, Aiden O'Connell, and Desmond Ritters (combined 82.4 passer rating). Fitzmaurice projects massive upside with Kirk Cousins arriving (noting Cousins' history of supporting elite tight ends like Kyle Pitts' 166-yard, three-touchdown game and Jordan Reed's 954-yard, 11-touchdown 2015 season with Washington) and eventual Fernando Mendoza, plus Clint Kubiak's offensive system overhaul, Tyler Linderbaum's addition, and Colton Miller's health. With no clear wide receiver competition on the Raiders, Bowers is the unquestioned star and will account for a massive percentage of the team's yards and touchdowns, positioning him as a potential consensus first-round pick in 2027 drafts.
