The Baltimore Ravens selected Boston College wide receiver Zay Flowers with the No. 22 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft. He will slot in next to fellow wideouts Odell Beckham Jr., Rashod Bateman and others, and will give quarterback Lamar Jackson another explosive weapon to throw to on a week-to-week basis.
When describing Flowers, a former Baltimore Ravens safety took to Twitter to give the rookie high praise in Tony Jefferson. The veteran said that Flowers looks like a mix of Brandin Cooks and Antonio Brown on film, two players who on the field have had or continue to have successful NFL careers.
