The Las Vegas Raiders have invested several of their premier draft picks into offensive skill position players over the last few years. Still, however, the team's offense has been largely inept, and in 2024, the Raiders averaged just 18.2 points per game, which ranked 29th in the league.
While a large part of this struggle has been due to subpar quarterback play, Las Vegas' young pieces have not developed in the way that most expected. Namely, Day 2 picks from the 2023 NFL Draft, wide receiver Tre Tucker and tight end Michael Mayer, have not lived up to their billing.
