The Raiders Are Shopping Mayer!

If they can get him for a mid/lower round draft pick, do it. He has some athleticism and he looks like a load to bring down.

Exactly. And he's athletic as hell, as well as smart.

CincyJungle mentioned it as a possibility yesterday and I think the idea could pick up steam.

Sports Illustrated also thinks it's a good idea for a fifth round pick, and even Yahoo and other sites are saying it's a good move.

And about drafting Bowers, the value was just too good for the Raiders to pass up, but the potential value of bringing Mayer home is too good to pass up.

I'm excited about this because I think he'd help Burrow win a Super Bowl!

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.

maybe Burton? lol

He hasn't had the chance to really break out because Bower came in after his rookie year but he'd kill it with Burrow throwing him the ball!

It would also open up our draft a lot!

Trade them Higgins for Mayer and a 4th or 5th rounder.

Lucky for us he didn't do well for them but I think he could be really good with us.

No offense, but that's not enough compensation for Higgins.

Raiders will likely take a Day 3 pick for Mayer given they have Bowers in front of him.
Mayer for a 4th or 5th rounder seems fair to me, as Mayer only has 2-3 years left on his contract.

You are a funny guy Brad. I would be okay with bringing him in, but it would have to be for a 6th or 7th round pick and we only have 6 picks
in this Draft so I am not in a hurry to give any away. As a matter of fact, I am for doing trade backs to add more picks. Don't like trading Tee 
unless we get more than a 4th or 5th either. More like a couple 2nd rounders.

They aren’t remotely interested in Mayer. Zip nada. They will resign Gesicki and have Sample and All.

They do not “have” All. He shouldn’t even be factored into their plans.

To both of you, definite error on my part but I was just thinking that we need to at least get something out of Higgins, especially if we don't sign him to a long-term deal, which I still don't think we should.

That's interesting but they did pass on him in the draft. Gesicki is fine, imo, but i wonder if they would be interested if Warren fell to them @17?
