Mayer's 6.1 YAC and Kubiak's two-TE system make him a late-round TE sleeper.

Mayer, drafted by the Raiders before Brock Bowers joined in 2024, posted 6.1 YAC per reception in his rookie year, ranking sixth among all TEs. The source speculates that with Klint Kubiak's system rating two TEs on the field at third and second over the last two seasons, and without an alpha WR on the team, Mayer becomes a late-round TE to monitor. The Raiders' decision to hold onto Mayer despite interest from other organizations and injuries to star TEs around the league suggests organizational confidence.
