The Las Vegas Raiders were never going to extend Jakobi Meyers on a long-term, lucrative deal. As unfortunate, and perhaps obvious now, as that is to say, it just simply was not in the cards for this team, as they couldn't afford to pay a player of his caliber what he was looking for.
Meyers is a very good wide receiver, easily the best Las Vegas had. He's not your prototypical No. 1 guy, but he is an elite ancillary piece. The Raiders, ultimately, did right by him, trading him to the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are a playoff team with a good quarterback.
