Zay Flowers

Flowers should immediately be starting in three wide receiver sets in Baltimore opposite Rashod Bateman and Odell Beckham Jr. in the Ravens' new-look passing attack under Todd Monken. With Greg Roman gone, Baltimore should usher in a new era of football with Lamar Jackson's arm doing the talking. The drastic changes incoming for the Ravens could open some eyes. The first could be the offensive pace and play volume, which means more passing attempts and targets for these receiving options. In three of Monken's last four seasons as an offensive mastermind, he's ranked inside the top 12 (eighth, 11th, fourth) in neutral script pace. Over that span, he was also top-five in passing attempts twice. If Beckham doesn't look like his old self and Bateman doesn't fully bounce back from last season's foot injury woes, Flowers could be the number two target in this aerial attack. Flowers can play inside and the perimeter as a receiver that can win at every level of the field. Flowers is a WR4 that can handily outplay his ADP if things break his way.

Zay Flowers is dealing with a minor hamstring tweak but is expected to participate in minicamp next week.

Fantasy Impact

Coach John Harbaugh does not seem to concerned about Flowers availability for minicamp next week. Flowers is expected to be a key contributor in the Ravens’ offense this season and will likely start alongside Rashod Bateman and Odell Beckham Jr. The rookie wide receiver is currently ranked at WR53 in ECR, according to FantasyPros.
