Looking at the current construction of the Seattle Seahawks offense, another skill position player does not seem like a major need. DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett are each coming off 1,000+ receiving...

Mayer uses his size perfectly throughout the course of the route in order to either create separation or box out defenders. He leans on defenders without pushing off near and at the stem, which allows him to present a better target for the QB. On jump balls Mayer has the size and athleticism to both high point the ball and shield off the defender from getting to the catch point.

Mayer is also able to create separation on routes such as whips and jerks as he is rather quick out of his break for a player of his size. Additionally, he runs them with a good FBI in terms of body movement to try and sell the defender on a different route. He is an extremely physical runner who is able to run through defenders, more often than not requiring multiple defenders to bring him down. Mayer has great contact balance which allows him to bounce off of poor tacklers and continue running downfield.

Mayer shows a great understanding of which shoulder to attack to seal off the defender from the hole.Mayer is a little sluggish in his first few steps as he does not have a quick burst or anything like that.On third downs Mayer does not always run to the sticks, turning his shoulders to the quarterback a yard or two before the yard to gain.
