Who Should I Start? Jakobi Meyers or Chris Olave

Tuesday, October 21, 4:50 PM

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee, toe) said that he still wants to be traded. "Oh, for sure. But I'm a professional at the end of the day. I'm just trying to play good football," Meyers said when asked if he still wants a trade this year. The Raiders are already looking at another lost season after starting 2-5 and sitting in last place in the AFC West as they head into their Week 8 bye in the first year with Pete Carroll as head coach. The 28-year-old Meyers asked for a trade earlier this season and wasn't granted one, but with Vegas out of contention coming up on the trade deadline, he could get his wish. He missed his first game in the Week 7 blowout loss to the Kansas City Chiefs due to knee and toe injuries, but Meyers is expected to be back after the bye to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. After reaching the 1,000-yard receiving mark for the first time in his career in 2024, Meyers has taken a back seat to Tre Tucker so far in 2025, posting a 29-329-0 line on 43 targets through six games.

According to The Athletic's Dianna Russini, the New Orleans Saints are not expected to trade wide receiver Chris Olave ahead of this year's deadline. Olave is in the final year of his rookie contract, sparking speculation about a potential move, but the Saints reportedly have no plans to deal him and are instead interested in a contract extension for their young star. Olave has been a target hog in 2025, catching 44 of 71 targets for 440 yards and three touchdowns through seven games. With the Saints committed to keeping him in New Orleans, Olave should continue to dominate the passing volume and profiles as a low-end WR2 for the rest of the fantasy season.
