Target share
14% to 23%

Why

  • Michael Mayer is TE20 on our rest of season ranking: 7.8 projected PPR points a game over his 10 games left through Week 17, 1.6 a game below a replacement TE (9.4).
  • Week 7: 7.8 projected PPR points (vs. LAR), TE18 on this week's board. That defense allows the 31st most fantasy points to his position.
  • His target share rose to 23% in Week 6, from 14% in his games before it.
  • Across Sleeper leagues he was dropped 75,654 times and added 463,185 times in the busiest 24 hours we measured this week.

Rest of season figures are projected PPR points a game from Week 7 through Week 17, measured against a replacement level starter at his position. Shares compare his last game with his games before it.

Who to add instead

If you need the spot, the best add at his position is Tyler Higbee (LAR) instead, 7.9 projected PPR points a game rest of season. He drew 411,156 adds in his busiest 24 hours this waiver cycle.
