Baltimore Ravens DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson posted his most inefficient throwing day but is able to put together a QB1-level fantasy performance. He registered 289 yards and two touchdowns while throwing 23-for-38 and added 46 yards on eight carries. Jackson led the offense down the field to get a late-game lead when Derrick Henry punched in a two-yard score, but was unable to make up for their defense's mistakes in a final game-winning drive. The Ravens' third-down offense couldn't convert for most of the game either. That said, the two-time MVP still posted a high-quality fantasy day. They'll return home for a Week 9 matchup against the Denver Broncos.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (ankle) is active for Week 8 against the Cleveland Browns. He had been listed as questionable. The young pass-catcher missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday before logging a limited session on Friday, so his availability for Week 8 was far from guaranteed. In the end, though, he'll be able to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup. Flowers has been somewhat inconsistent as a low-floor, high-ceiling receiver this year. While fantasy managers can't be fully confident in his ability to post starter-caliber numbers, he should still be deployed as a top-24 receiver in most leagues. So far this year, he ranks as the overall WR19 in PPR leagues.

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill has been an inconsistent fantasy option throughout the season. Last week, Hill was able to salvage his fantasy value with three receptions for 44 yards and a touchdown through the air. Hill has struggled as a runner this season with only two games over 20 yards heading into the Week 8 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The Ravens continue to lean on Derrick Henry as the lead back, so Hill is likely only going to have a minimal role. Fantasy managers should consider Hill as a boom-or-bust flex option for this weekend.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (ankle) is anticipated to play in Sunday's AFC North showdown with the Cleveland Browns. The wideout earned a questionable tag after missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday. He logged a limited session on Friday, although that didn't add any clarity regarding his availability for Week 8. However, Barring a setback, Lamar Jackson will have his top pass-catcher on the field. Of course, Flowers is a must-start in all fantasy setups. Unfortunately, Flowers' presence could mean fewer targets for Rashod Bateman, Mark Andrews, and Isaiah Likely, who would have all been in line for more attention.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely began the 2024-25 campaign by catching nine of his 12 targets for 111 yards and a touchdown in the Week 1 loss to the Chiefs. While the 24-year-old has found the end zone two more times since then, he has just 11 receptions in the Ravens' previous six contests. Without question, Likely had a bright future in the National Football League. But unless Zay Flowers (ankle) is sidelined for the AFC North meeting with the Browns, Likely is hard to trust from a fantasy standpoint.
