From the episode
I have him as my wide receiver 14. And consensus markets will put him right about wide receiver 22... Targets in all three seasons for Zay Flowers, Casey, have gone up. 118 last year for him... 2.52 yards per route run. So there's elite efficiency showing he wins consistently... 14 yards per reception last year. 19 explosive plays of 20 or more yards... His yards per route run jumped from 2.25 to 2.52... 10th in expected fancy points per game last year at 14.7... First in drops was Zay Flowers with 10... He was first in juke rate for evaded tackles per reception... the biggest hurdle we need to get over is Ken Declan Doyle do it. That's really my only question. And if he can, then I think, I think you couldn't pay enough for Zay right now... this Sean Payton protege with a little bit of Ben Johnson sprinkled in can kind of take Lamar and this, you know, offense to the next level. And you're already seeing Lamar saying, this is a mind blowing offense... I'm calling it right now. It's going to be the Zay Flowers year and you're going to want him.
STACKED’s take
The source ranks Flowers as WR14 individually vs. consensus WR22, believes he will be more expensive next year, and is willing to overpay now. Targets have increased all three seasons (118 last year); 2.52 yards per route run (elite efficiency); 14 yards per reception; 19 explosive plays of 20+ yards; year-over-year growth from 2024 to 2025 with 152 additional receiving yards, 12 more receptions, and one more touchdown; yards per route run improved from 2.25 to 2.52; 10th in expected fantasy points per game at 14.7 last year. First in drops with 10 (indicates opportunity for regression and upside). First in juke rate for evaded tackles per reception, showing YAC ability. The biggest hurdle is whether new offensive coordinator Ken Doyle can execute the new system. If he can, the source believes 'you couldn't pay enough for Zay right now.' The new coordinator is a Sean Payton protege with Ben Johnson influence; Lamar Jackson has called it 'a mind blowing offense.' The source previously was anti-Zay Flowers in prior years but has shifted conviction, calling it 'the Zay Flowers year' and noting that the redraft market is pushing him higher while the dynasty market is moving slower, creating an opportunity.
