Multiple Teams Seek Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers Amid Day 2 Pick Trade Demand

News summary

The Las Vegas Raiders are actively exploring trade options for wide receiver Jakobi Meyers ahead of the November 4 NFL trade deadline due to his contract situation and his public trade request. Despite multiple teams showing interest, the Raiders reportedly want at least a Day 2 draft pick in return, a price considered steep for Meyers, who is viewed as worth a third-round pick at most. Meyers, who is turning 30 next year and is in the final year of his contract, has been a consistent contributor but his age and contract status limit his trade value. The Raiders might also prefer to keep Meyers, especially if a first-round pick offer does not materialize, and are expected to sign former All-Pro Tyler Lockett, signaling they may not be sellers at the deadline. Teams like the Steelers have been linked to Meyers but are hesitant to meet the Raiders' asking price due to their own roster considerations and the high cost for a rental player. The situation remains fluid, with the Raiders balancing the potential benefits of a trade against the compensatory draft pick they could receive if Meyers leaves in free agency after 2025.
