July is the time of the year when many fantasy football owners are participating in bestball drafts. Bestball teams are teams you can draft and just forget about, because they automatically optimize your lineup every week. Whoever scores the most points gets automatically inserted into your lineup.
In these leagues, you want to target players with a high weekly upside, even if they aren't as consistent as you'd like in season-long leagues. These are the top wide receivers to target in bestball leagues.
Zay Flowers, Baltimore Ravens
Last season, Flowers scored 78.5 of his 243.3 fantasy points in just three games. He didn't score 16 points in any other game and still finished as the WR7 overall in 2025.
While we do expect him to be a bit more consistent in 2026 with a fully healthy Lamar Jackson, we also expect him to still have those big blowup games sprinkled in throughout the season as well.
