Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is "locked in as a starter" as training camp gets underway, according to Tashan Reed of The Athletic. Reed also notes that Meyers spent most of his time in OTAs working from the slot. The 28-year-old has been a consistent producer across his two seasons in Las Vegas. He took over as the team's number one receiver after the Raiders traded Davante Adams early in the 2024 season and posted career highs in catches (87) and receiving yards (1,027). Meyers will likely be new Raiders quarterback Geno Smith's second-favorite target behind star tight end Brock Bowers. He finished as the WR23 in PPR points-per-game in a similar role last season.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir is looking to take the next step in 2025 after bursting onto the scene in 2024 with 76 catches, 821 receiving yards and four touchdowns during the regular season. Bills beat writer Maddy Glab says that this year, Shakir is looking to be quicker and to find new ways to separate from defensive backs. "First step quickness, always trying to improve on that," Shakir said of what he worked on this offseason. "Speed, just withholding speed for a certain amount of time and that quick burst, as well as separation. Just finding new ways and new releases to get open against man coverage." The 25-year-old had a high target share and plenty of yards after the catch, but the Bills spread the ball around too much to make him anything more than a WR3/flex. It's likely to continue, and his lack of red-zone usage makes Shakir a low-ceiling WR4/flex target.
