Meyers is the pick for the source who wants the least direct exposure to the Jacksonville room. The team's most-used pass catchers over its final ten games last year were exactly the types of receivers this front office traded for and immediately extended, and Meyers fits that same mold. However, he has had almost no practice time yet to build chemistry with his new quarterback. With the team also expected to lean heavily on multiple tight ends this year, that the source's overall verdict is to mostly avoid betting on any specific receiver here and instead simply draft the quarterback to access the offense's upside broadly.

Meyers is one of the most mispriced players at WR 48 ADP according to Fantasy Points; he averaged 24 fantasy points in eight full games last year, was WR16 in expected fantasy points (slightly underperforming his role), led the team in target share and first read target share, and is priced down due to being perceived as boring. The source views him as a good technical value with a solid floor, likely to be a WR3 most weeks with steady five-catch, 60-yard performances. He's the cheapest way to invest in the Jaguars offense and completely unlocked the offense when he came over from Las Vegas—when Meyers was on the field, the Jaguars posted the best passing EPA per play in the league last season, and the offense averaged 28 points per game down the stretch, a pace that would rank top-5 in football if repeated.

Meyers is projected for 100 targets with an ESPN ADP of 107, representing the cheapest option among Jaguars receivers despite unclear pecking order. Matthew Berry notes that Parker Washington leads with 107 projected targets, Meyers has 100, and Brian Thomas has 98, indicating the Jaguars could operate like the Packers of the AFC South—spreading the ball around with no true WR1 for fantasy. Among the three, Meyers offers the best value at his current ADP.
