Trends


"Flowers is back for his third NFL season after posting very similar numbers in each of his first two campaigns. He was utilized downfield more in 2024 than he was as a rookie, which boosted his yardage total, but he saw a dip in catches and TDs. He's finished outside the top 20 receivers in receptions, TDs and fantasy points in both seasons and simply didn't have enough quality fantasy outings last season, as he scored 18-plus points five times (all prior to Week 10) and fewer than 12 points in 11 games. The 24-year-old is the No. 1 receiver in Baltimore's elite offense, but the scheme simply limits his fantasy ceiling. He's best valued as a good WR3."


"Flowers missed both of Baltimore's playoff games last year due to a right knee sprain sustained during the team's regular-season finale against Cleveland, but he didn't require surgery to address the issue and now appears back to full health. He'll work to take another step forward as the leader of the Ravens' wide receiver corps entering Year 3, after having tallied a 74-1,059-4 receiving line (on 116 targets) across 17 regular-season appearances in 2024. Baltimore remains a run-heavy offense featuring QB Lamar Jackson and RB Derrick Henry, leaving a smaller share of targets to be distributed between the 2023 first-round pick, Rashod Bateman and tight ends Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely, but Flowers' ability to create separation downfield and 4.42 speed make it possible for him to produce efficiently even without heavy volume."
