NegativeRoleOct 29, 2026
Raiders TE capable of racking up receptions if targeted heavily, but unreliable due to inconsistent performance pattern; alternates between great days and poor outings (three for 30, four for 40). Week 8 projection: 4 receptions, 36 yards. Cannot be trusted despite upside potential.NegativeUsageAug 8, 2026
Michael Mayer is expected to be part of a tight-end-heavy rotation in Las Vegas, with beat reports highlighting him alongside Brock Bowers and the running backs as the primary targets.PositiveValueJul 15, 2026
Author targets Michael Mayer as a late-round pairing option with Fernando Mendoza in the Raiders offense, available in rounds 17-18.PositiveValueJul 10, 2026
Mayer is one of the best round 18 picks available on Underdog, as he will see significantly more playing time than expected in the Raiders' two tight end sets before the public catches on in August.PositiveRoleNo date
Expected to play significantly more than consensus; the source projects a much larger role than people think because the Raiders offense will run a ton of two tight-end sets, meaning only two wide receivers on the field and tight ends will be thrown to at one of the highest rates in the league. Continues to be available at the back end of round 18 on Underdog, making him an exceptional value pick.
