FantasyPros Articles on Zay Flowers
From the article
Going as the WR16, 36th overall, Flowers has improved every year of his first three NFL seasons. Last year he topped 1,200 receiving yards with 86 catches and six total touchdowns, finishing as the WR7 overall despite that modest touchdown total, and did it with real consistency, catching at least four passes in 13 of his 17 games. His per-route efficiency has been elite, ranking fourth in yards per route run last year behind only three other names, two of whom are top-five overall picks in fantasy drafts.
STACKED’s take
Flowers' WR12 per-game pace and elite route efficiency suggest WR1 upside at WR16 ADP.
Going as WR16, 36th overall, Flowers has improved every year of his first three NFL seasons and finished as WR7 overall last year despite a modest touchdown total. He ranked fourth in yards per route run last year, behind only three other names who are top-five overall picks in fantasy drafts. A new offensive coordinator should push the offense toward faster pace and heavier passing volume after ranking dead last in pass rate over expectation last year. Increased red zone usage could unlock real touchdown equity given his quarterback's strong career touchdown rate. He was actually WR12 in fantasy points per game on a per-game basis, a stat most casual drafters wouldn't guess given how he's still being priced as a wide receiver two.
