Hasn't had Lamar Jackson for nearly a month … and is still one of just five receivers averaging 20-plus PPR points per game. This is thanks in large part to the exceptional start-sit ability here: Flowers has a full 43 additional yards after the catch over any wide receiver this season. Now, Flowers would drop to about WR10 if Lamar remains sidelined, but if not? We're talking about a blowup spot with a sky-high 54.5-point game total against a Bills defense that ranks last in fantasy points per game allowed to WRs and 29th in EPA allowed per dropback this season.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Flowers is WR3 with Lamar return upside; Bills rank last vs. WRs.

Ranked WR3 for Week 8 at Buffalo despite Lamar Jackson being sidelined for nearly a month; still one of just five receivers averaging 20-plus PPR points per game thanks to exceptional start-sit ability with 43 additional yards after the catch over any other WR this season. Would drop to about WR10 if Lamar remains out, but if he returns, this is a blowup spot against a Bills defense ranking last in fantasy points per game allowed to WRs and 29th in EPA allowed per dropback. Bills CB Christian Benford has allowed four receiving touchdowns in coverage (tied for second most in NFL) despite limited slot snaps.
