More on Mayer and the TE board
He's a depth option, not a priority pick: #109 overall, #13 at his position. Draft late or stream based on matchups.
His current ADP in ESPN drafts is 168 (roughly round 14 in a 12-team league). We rank him #85 in 1QB Full-PPR drafts, so he is a value at that price.
We project 9.5 PPR points per game across an expected 10 games — approximately 95 points for the season. His typical game last season landed between 5.3 and 16.2 (middle 50% of results), and that puts him #114 in projected scoring (#85 on the 1QB draft board once positional value is applied).
He delivered at least 75% of his average in 57% of games, with a floor of 1.2 and a ceiling of 16.5 fantasy points. He boomed (125%+ of average) in 43% of games and busted (under half his average) in 14%.
