The Top 30 visits continue in Las Vegas. And it’s another offensive player. They hosted Kentucky QB Will Levis Monday and today it’s Boston College WR Zay Flowers coming to town according to NFL media’s Tom Pelissero.
After visiting the #Cowboys on Monday, Boston College WR Zay Flowers is headed to Las Vegas today for a visit with the #Raiders, per source.

This is ahead of Florida QB Anthony Richardson set to visit on Friday.
Flowers is a projected first round pick in April’s draft.
The 5-10 177-pound receiver caught 78 passes for 1077 yards and 12 touchdowns last season for the BC Eagles.
Flowers fan a 4.42 40-yard-dash at the scouting combine which was 9th at his position.
The Raiders currently employ arguably the best receiver in the game in DaVante Adams. They also have one of the league’s top slot receivers in Hunter Renfrow and just signed the top free agent receiver in Jakobi Meyers. So, drafting a receiving in the first round would be a strange move. Perhaps they’re hoping Flowers somehow makes it to them in the second round?
