Who Should I Start? Jakobi Meyers or Adonai Mitchell

Monday, October 27, 3:24 PM

Multiple NFL teams have "shown interest" in trading for Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers, who is in the final year of his contract and has publicly said he still wants to be traded, sources tell Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. However, teams have "had a hard time getting a clear read on whether Las Vegas is truly willing to move him." The belief is that it would take at least "a Day 2 pick" for the Raiders to even consider moving him. The 28-year-old missed the Week 7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs due to knee and toe injuries, but he's expected to be ready to face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9 after a bye in Week 8. A change of scenery might be what Meyers needs to get going, as he has a 29-329-0 line through six games in 2025 while working with quarterback Geno Smith. If Meyers is traded, Tre Tucker and rookies Dont'e Thornton Jr. and Jack Bech would start in three-wide sets for the Raiders.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell will be active in Week 7 against the Los Angeles Chargers after he was inactive in Week 6 and played just six snaps in Week 5. The Colts effectively benched Mitchell after he made several mistakes in a Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, but they will turn back to him with both Josh Downs (concussion) and Ashton Dulin (chest) inactive for Week 7. The Chargers represent a tough matchup for Mitchell as they are allowing just the 30th-most fantasy points per game to receivers this season. It also remains to be seen just how much the Colts use Mitchell in Week 7, even with him active. He should not be in fantasy lineups against the Chargers this weekend.
