The quarterback play has been terrible, and the Raiders are expected to make the change to Desmond Ridder after Gardner Minshew II was benched for a third time this season.

Related players: Aidan O'Connell, Jakobi Meyers, Brock Bowers

O'Connell is expected to miss 4-6 weeks and is on IR. He could return in December based on that timeline, but for Week 11, it looks like the Raiders are going with Ridder against the Dolphins. Ridder was just recently signed off the wire and made his debut in relief of Minshew when we last saw the Raiders in Week 9. Ridder likely won't make an impact as the starter, but the hope is the offense continues to target Bowers at TE and Meyers at WR so their fantasy stock remains steady.

Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) will not practice today, per Pierce...he'll be DOUBTFUL for Rams game.

Playing any fantasy assets outside of Brock Bowers is basically punting your lineup into the Fountains of Bellagio. Let your opponents start Tre Tucker this week.

The Raiders are completing a trade of star WR Davante Adams to the Jets, sources say.

This seemed like just a matter of time, and finally Adams is back with his good friend Rodgers. The deal was for a third round pick, according to other reports. Adams and Rodgers are very familiar with one another, and it should make for a smooth transition. It's possible Adams plays in Week 7. It's likely going to be a hit to Wilson's fantasy stock, just when Rodgers and Wilson were getting things going, too. There's a report also out today that Williams ran the wrong route in the MNF loss, and was called out by Rodgers after it resulted in an interception. The addition of Adams likely means Williams takes a big backseat in the offense, and it's even possible he gets moved before the deadline at this point. As for the Raiders, Bowers could be the focal point of this offense going forward as Meyers, Tucker and Turner battle it out to have fantasy relevance at WR. It may take some time for a pecking order to develop here, so anyone hurting for WR help can take a flier on at least Tucker and Turner, who may be on your wire.

Raiders WR Davante Adams (hamstring) is not expected to play this week vs. Steelers, per sources.

No surprise here, but at least we get the news early in the week. Meyers and Bowers look to benefit the most from Adams' absence (and eventual trade) and should be considered respective WR2 and TE1s.

The Raiders' preference as an organization is to get a Davante Adams trade done “sooner rather than later,” per multiple sources.

The Adams distraction is the last thing the team needs now as it continues to struggle. But, the post went on to say the Raiders aren’t going to do just any deal, and their preference has been not to take on any of the money remaining on Adams’ contract, according to Shultz's post. The post did say expect things to ramp up this week. The Raiders switched from Gardner Minshew to Aidan O'Connell against the Broncos, but it didn't lead to a spark on offense. Bowers may benefit the most with Adams no longer in the lineup and he posted an 8-97-1 line, followed by Meyers' 6-72-0 line. Tucker didn't have a great day, despite being a popular name on the waiver wire.

Raiders WR Davante Adams is not expected to play Sunday vs. the Broncos due to his hamstring injury, per league sources.

There's a very real chance we've seen Adams play his last snap as a Las Vegas Raider, which leaves their receiver corps as one of the worst in the league if they don't get anyone back in a potential trade.

Yes, Davante Adams likely has played his last game as a Raider.

Via NFL Media, Adams has informed the Raiders that he would like to be traded.

Adams missed Week 5 after injuring his hamstring in practice last week. Reports began to circulate the Raiders have reached out to teams who may be interested in trading for Adams. The story said since they’d likely cut him after the season, before his $35.64 million salary hits the books, they wouldn’t get a compensatory draft pick when he signs elsewhere. The only way to get compensation is to trade him before the deadline, which arrives in five weeks, the story said.

Terrible news for the Raiders offense and their chances of beating the Browns in general. Meyers can be considered a fringe WR2/3 in Week 4, while Bowers might hit double-digit targets for the first time in his young career.

Former Cowboys WR Michael Gallup plans to sign a one-year deal worth up to $3 million with the Las Vegas Raiders.

Related Players: Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers, Tre Tucker

This is a great landing spot for Gallup to try and work his way back into the fantasy consciousness. It feels like ages ago, but the former Cowboy was a consistent producer in the 2019-2020 seasons before being sidelined with a calf strain through much of 2021. Gallup could find his way into 3WR sets with some consistency after the team left the NFL Draft without a new WR.

The Raiders will release WR Hunter Renfrow when the new league year begins later today, as he was to count $13.7M against the cap. Renfrow, along with QB Jimmy Garoppolo, will both be free agents.

Renfrow's role in the post-Carr Raiders has taken a huge drop, falling to only 37 targets in 2023. Regardless of where he lands, a return to a 100+ target option is unlikely.
