Elite 28% target share and WR7 finish make fifth-round value despite red zone risk
Zay FlowersWR
The source is softening a negative stance on Zay Flowers and views him as a strong value in the fifth round. Flowers' target share has increased each of the past three seasons and reached 28% last year—an elite target share. Lamar Jackson had 9% of his attempts as end zone attempts (highest in NFL) and likes Flowers. While Flowers finished as WR7 last year, he is being drafted as a mid-WR2, potentially a WR3 in the fifth round. The source views the offensive coordinator change (Declan Doyle, Ben Johnson protégé) as positive and notes Flowers will clearly be the number one option in the passing game. Red zone concerns exist: only 11 total red zone targets with one touchdown, but the talent and target share trajectory are compelling.
