He has been in the league for 2 years and has done nothing, has already lost his starting job, has already left the team for personal reasons. When playing, he has not been dynamic or a game changer.
Raider need to keep him, have an actual productive season, and then trade him in 2026. Because they'd be selling at an all time low right now.
This would be ideal for them, but they target Bowers about 15-18 times a game. There's just not enough to spread around to their 2nd TE. You're not wrong, but he would be one hell of a target in the middle for JB, and he has great hands.

If the Raiders are willing to take our 6th (or our 2026 5th) for him, I would do it and make him our TE2 because the talent was obviously there somewhere and I think that's a better gamble than whomever we would draft in the 6th.
Just can't let it keep us from still finding a solution at TE1.
He could flourish here with JB. He was drafted early for a reason. I would be all for scooping him up at the right price.
