After waiting until the sixth round to draft a receiver, the Raiders’ starting lineup is likely set with Jalen Nailor, Tre Tucker, and Jack Bech. Nailor is poised to be the featured target in this group and carries legitimate fantasy WR4 potential for the upcoming fantasy season.

 

Despite this upside, he remains an undervalued late-round option typically drafted outside the top 150 picks. Permission to get excited about Nailor as a late-round spike week flier in both best ball and dynasty formats.

The Vikings are looking for a viable 3rd wide receiver option with the departures of Brandon Powell and K.J. Osborn in free agency.  Jalen Nailor’s performance to open camp has him in the lead as early favorite for the job.  The 2022 6th round pick has impressed and it was said by Vikings beat reporter Will Ragatz that it is his job to lose.

 

Nailor’s early buzz in camp is noteworthy.  If the Vikings solidify their QB, there could be a decent opportunity for targets with Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison drawing coverage and TJ Hockenson expected to miss the beginning of the year.  Nailor is a great late round dart throw in bestball drafts and a priority waiver add in dynasty leagues with this news.
