Fantasy football managers frustrated with Zay Flowers' early-season production should resist the urge to trade away the Baltimore Ravens wide receiver, according to fantasy analyst Justin Boone. Despite a slow start, Flowers' underlying metrics suggest a breakout is imminent as the Ravens' offense continues to evolve.
Flowers has seen consistent target volume but has yet to convert opportunities into elite fantasy numbers. However, upcoming schedule favorable matchups and improved chemistry with quarterback Lamar Jackson could unlock his ceiling. Boone advises managers to "keep the candle burning" — meaning maintain roster patience — as positive regression appears likely in the coming weeks.
