7/01/25 | Raiders Have the Best TE Room in AFC West. The Las Vegas Raiders boast one of the best tight end rooms in the division. The duo of Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer is one you could put up against the rest of the NFL, and the Raiders may come up on the winning end of many others in the league. Las Vegas added a quarterback to get the ball to its pass-catchers more consistently, meaning we could see even better versions of Bowers and Mayer in 2025. Not only that, but the depth of Ian Thomas and Justin Shorter is impressive. Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/raiders/las-vegas-brock-bow... |
6/30/25 | NFL Insider Believes the Raiders Are on the Right Track. The Las Vegas Raiders are a much different team than they were last season.

6/28/25 | Brock Bowers Weighs In on Raiders OC Chip Kelly. The Las Vegas Raiders want to revamp the offense next season.

6/27/25 | Raiders' rivals making crucial Brock Bowers mistake (that will make him better). The Las Vegas Raiders struck gold with tight end Brock Bowers in the 2024 NFL Draft. Raider Nation knows the tale of his historic rookie season, as the Georgia product broke endless records en route to a Pro Bowl appearance and a spot on the All-Pro First-Team. Another leap during his second season would not be unexpected either. Geno Smith is far superior to any quarterback Bowers caught passes from last season, and offensive coordinator Chip Kelly has all the tools for a massively improved offense overall.

6/26/25 | Raiders predicted to trade $9 million former 2nd-round pick to Commanders. In the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, the Las Vegas Raiders selected tight end Brock Bowers. Bowers ended up bursting onto the scene in the NFL as a rookie, and is already one of the best tight ends in the league after just one season. The Georgia product caught a whopping 112 passes for 1,194 yards and five touchdowns in 2024 and should be ticketed for another huge season with Geno Smith now throwing to him.

6/23/25 | Grim Brock Bowers fantasy prediction is no reason for Raiders fans to panic. The Las Vegas Raiders went against the grain and ignored bigger needs on their roster when they made tight end Brock Bowers the No. 13 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Bowers set records for both receptions and receiving yards by a rookie tight end last year en route to being the top-scoring tight end in full PPR fantasy football last season. In every fantasy scoring format, he ranked no lower than No. 2 at his position. Source: https://justblogbaby.com/grim-brock-bowers-fantasy... |
6/20/25 | Raiders' Jack Bech Can Be a Franchise Star. The Las Vegas Raiders used their second-round pick in 2025 to select wide receiver Jack Bech out of TCU. Although they selected Ashton Jeanty in the first round, they weren't done adding on to the offense, and Bech was who they decided to go with. While Bech may not have the most refined skill tree amongst his peers, he makes up for that with his physicality and dog mentality, something much appreciated in a team coached by Pete Carroll. The Raiders have Brock Bowers, who is a legitimate threat with the ball in his hands, but outside of Jakobi Meyers, their wide receiver room is wide open.

6/20/25 | The Raiders are well-equipped for tight end success under Chip Kelly. The Las Vegas Raiders were not devoid of talent last season, but the former coaching staff was unable to get the best out of the team's players. New head coach Pete Carroll is looking to remedy this in 2025, and he hired a great coaching staff to support him. New Raiders offensive coordinator Chip Kelly must be excited about the potential of the team's tight end duo in particular. Over the last few years, previous Raiders management has used high draft capital to invest in the position with the selections of Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer.

6/17/25 | Raiders' sophomore is stealing the spotlight while all eyes are elsewhere. Tom Telesco did not give much to the Las Vegas Raiders, but he did nail the first three rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft. Brock Bowers was a First-Team All-Pro last season, Jackson Powers-Johnson made the All-Rookie team, and D.J. Glaze turned into a high-end starter at right tackle in his first campaign. Much has been made this offseason about Bowers' potential in a competent offense with a clever play-caller and a viable veteran quarterback. Powers-Johnson has also been popular as he transitions to center full-time and builds a rapport with Geno Smith. Source: https://justblogbaby.com/raiders-sophomore-is-stea... |
6/13/25 | Five Raiders who impressed during pre-training camp workouts. Maxx Crosby disrupted the offense. Ashton Jeanty flashed his footwork prowess.

6/10/25 | Raiders tight end turned heads at OTAs, and it's not who you think. The Las Vegas Raiders may not have everything figured out at this juncture in the offseason, but they do hold one key advantage over the rest of the AFC West. With Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer manning the ship for the Silver and Black, both the present and future outlook of the offense has hope. While Bowers and Mayer continued to receive the bulk of the praise from offensive coordinator Chip Kelly and their teammates during OTAs, Carroll spoke about one unexpected player when he met with the media on Monday.

6/07/25 | Will Raiders' Raheem Mostert Make Noise at Minicamp?. The Las Vegas Raiders knew that if they wanted to turn their franchise around, they had to address their offensive woes. Carroll must've taken a look at their roster and realized that their pass catchers were much better than their running backs, with a star in the making in Brock Bowers and a reliable wide receiver in Jakobi Meyers.

6/06/25 | It's only 2025, but Brock Bowers' next contract could break the Raiders' bank. The Las Vegas Raiders were fortunate to have Georgia tight end Brock Bowers fall into their lap with the No. 13 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Although this meant that they missed out on all six first-round quarterback prospects, this selection was a no-brainer for then-general manager Tom Telesco. Bowers had a rookie season of epic proportions, catching 112 passes for 1,194 yards and five touchdowns. Despite a wildly subpar quarterback room, Bowers was able to set multiple tight end and rookie receiving records, and he rewrote the Raiders' history books as well.

5/25/25 | Do Raiders Still Need More at WR?. The Las Vegas Raiders did not move the ball well through the air in 2024. They had good pieces in their passing game, including budding star tight end Brock Bowers and wide receiver Jakobi Meyers, who has grown comfortable as the team's top receiver. However, the Raiders' offense operated at a higher level when Davante Adams was the team's No. 1 receiver and Meyers could play an effective complementary role. The team did not sign a receiver during free agency, instead electing to select two in the 2025 NFL Draft: TCU's Jack Bech and Tennessee's Dont'e Thornton Jr. The Raiders should not expect Bech to be the team's No. 1 receiver in his rookie season, as his skill set fits as an ancillary piece, Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/raiders/las-vegas-jakobi-me... |
