Tre Tucker Still a Fantasy Option Despite New Competition?
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker faces new competition in his position group this offseason after the team signed Jalen Nailor to a $35 million deal. Plus, familiar faces Jack Bech, Brock Bowers, and Michael Mayer remain in the mix as pass-catching threats. It may seem like a somewhat crowded receiver room for Tucker, who has yet to establish himself as a real fantasy threat week in and week out. However, there are still reasons for dynasty managers to be optimistic. First of all, Tucker is trending up after finishing as the overall WR38 in PPR leagues last year. That number was a bit skewed by some extreme outlier games, but it's still encouraging to see that he can deliver meaningful fantasy outputs to managers. Additionally, the Raiders are expected to upgrade at quarterback with projected No. 1 pick Fernando Mendoza. He's a clear improvement over Geno Smith, and his strong passing skills should be able to support fantasy-relevant production from several receivers often, and not just one receiver here and there. Tucker is definitely still going to have to earn the right to catch more passes in this offense, but he and the Raiders as a whole are trending up.
