Michael Mayer agrees to deal with Raiders

The Las Vegas Raiders have signed second-round draft pick Michael Mayer to his rookie contract according to Adam Schefter.

Fantasy Impact: Mayer immediately projects as a solid option in the passing game for free-agent acquisition quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo as part of a re-tooled Las Vegas offensive attack under head coach Josh McDaniels. The rookie tight end out of Notre Dame could offer sneaky value for fantasy owners who choose to wait until later in drafts to address the position. Financial details of the contract have yet to be announced. Stay tuned for further updates.
