The source pulled Zay Flowers ahead of George Pickens, Rice, and Devonta Smith, representing aggressive positioning. Flowers has maintained above 2.5 yards per route run for his career; the Ravens may shift to more pass-heavy personnel this year due to lacking a second tight end and fullback, which could increase natural slot routes for Flowers and boost volume. Flowers has consistently been productive but has never scored touchdowns at a high rate; the source sees upside in whether Flowers can finally break through in the end zone this season. Critically, Flowers at pick 25 requires pairing with Lamar Jackson to justify the ADP; Jackson and Flowers have the most correlated ceiling of any two players in fantasy football, making the stack essential for Flowers' upside realization.NegativeProjectionMay 16, 2026
