The Fantasy football draft bible features Nagel's top busts relative to their ADP:
"There are a lot of variables under first-year coach Jesse Minter and offensive coordinator Declan Doyle, and the team also drafted receivers Elijah Sarratt and Ja'Kobi Lane. While Flowers should still be the top target in Baltimore, expecting him to produce WR1 numbers is quite a leap from his previous ceiling as a reliable WR3 who usually notched double figures on pure volume alone. We don't expect Flowers to pay off a third-round ADP."
Harold Fannin, TE, Browns (ADP of 65): Under first-year coach Todd Monken, it's unclear who will be under center between historic contract albatross Deshaun Watson and unpolished prospect Shedeur Sanders, who provided Fannin most of his volume last year. The Browns also used their first two draft picks on receivers KC Conception and Denzel Boston, providing massive target competition. We'd rather grab Sam LaPorta of the Lions a round later or even wait for alter-round value such as Jake Ferguson of the Cowboys. Get the full Fantasy football draft guide over at SportsLine .
