0:00.0

We're through five weeks of the season and there are players that are rising up the fantasy rankings very quickly.

0:05.3

These are players that you need to be starting in your lineups or trying to acquire as soon as possible.

0:09.7

And one of those players that we can start with here is the rookie in Baltimore Zay Flowers who continues to just rise up the rankings both weekly and for the rest of the season.

0:17.2

In my opinion, very quietly, he's a top 25 receiver the rest of the year.

0:21.3

Because he's doing a lot of impressive things very quietly so far. It's going under the radar.

0:25.6

We'll talk about that more in a second. But 40 targets so far this year, okay, averaging

0:29.0

eight targets per game, three different games he's hit at least 10 targets, and a 29% target

0:34.4

chair is 12th amongst every receiver in the league. And Flowers has also been highly

0:38.3

efficient as a rookie. He's 30th in yards per route run and 14th in yards after the catch so far.

0:43.7

And just check out his weekly production. You could see the weeks here and look at the targets

0:47.5

in the far column. That's his target share. How many targets he's earning out of Lamar Jackson's

0:51.6

total passes? 50%, 33%, 24% and 27%.

0:56.5

That's four out of five games.

0:58.0

In his NFL career, he's a rookie that he's earning about a quarter percent of the targets

1:02.4

or more, meaning he's the wide receiver won.

1:04.5

And he's ran 100% of the routes the last three games, and his usage has quietly gotten

1:08.6

better.

1:09.0

For the first three weeks of the season, he was basically only being used as a short area player, but the last two weeks, his average

1:14.3

target is 16 yards downfield. And now the reason why he's going under the radar and you could

1:18.4

probably still try to acquire him in a trade is this right here. He hasn't had a massive game yet.

1:22.4

No touchdowns, no games over 80 yards, but he's just been consistent and he's had a lot of red zone targets, so those touchdowns will come. And part of that consistency is just being healthy, something that

1:31.1

his other wide receivers in his core haven't done so far. Odell Beckham is banged up again.
