The 2026 NFL Draft is here, which will close the books to some trades made over the years. Among those trades includes the Jakobi Meyers swap from the Las Vegas Raiders to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Original terms of the Jakobi Meyers trade
- Raiders receive: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 sixth-round pick
- Jaguars receive: Jakobi Meyers
What did the Las Vegas Raiders do with the picks from the Jakobi Meyers trade?
The Raiders got the fourth-round pick from the Jags, but it originally belonged to the Minnesota Vikings, who sent it to Jacksonville for offensive tackle Cam Robinson. It falls at 117 overall and we will update when the Raiders use the selection.
The 182nd overall pick is also part of the deal, but the Raiders
traded that to the Bills for Taron Johnson this offseason. He will slot in as the nickel cornerback — pun intended.
How was Jakobi Meyers’ performance for the Jaguars in 2025?
Meyers was a great addition to the Jaguars in the second half of the 2025 season. After his trade to the Jags, Meyers caught 42 passes for 483 yards and three touchdowns, surpassing the numbers he posted with the Raiders earlier in the season. Meyers was a top target for quarterback Trevor Lawrence in the second half of the season, and the team views him as an important piece to the offensive puzzle moving forward.
What did the Jaguars do with Jakobi Meyers moving forward?
Meyers signed a three-year, $60 million contract extension in December, which has him on the books until the end of the 2028 campaign. The Jags also moved No. 2 overall pick Travis Hunter to cornerback full-time, partially due to the fact that Meyers played so well for them in 2025.
