Teams interested in acquiring Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers may need to give up at least a Day 2 draft pick to do so. <\/p>\n
ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler<\/a> reported Wednesday that his “sense is the Raiders want a strong pick for Meyers.”<\/p>\n “A swap of Day 3 picks won’t do at this stage,” Fowler wrote.<\/p>\n Fowler named the Pittsburgh Steelers as the team most likely to trade for Meyers, who requested a trade in August and reiterated<\/a> in October he still wanted to be moved.<\/p>\n ESPN’s Adam Schefter<\/a> reported last Saturday, however, that the Raiders will trade Meyers ahead of the Nov. 4 deadline “only if they felt they were getting strong value in return.”<\/p>\n NFL insider Jordan Schultz<\/a> also reported Monday that there is a “belief” the Raiders were looking for at least a Day 2 pick in exchange for Meyers. <\/p>\n The Steelers are a match for Meyers because other teams are “looking for more of a vertical threat than a possession receiver,” Fowler noted.<\/p>\n Schefter<\/a> has previously reported that the Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos are other candidates to pursue a wide receiver ahead of the trade deadline.<\/p>\n Meyers missed Week 7 with knee and toe injuries, but when available has recorded 29 catches for 329 receiving yards in six games this season.<\/p>\n He and Geno Smith still haven’t been able to revive the Raiders’ passing offense, which currently ranks<\/a> 27th in the league with 182.7 passing yards per game.<\/p>\n
