Ravens Draft WR LaJohntay Wester

The Baltimore Ravens selected Colorado WR LaJohntay Wester with the 203rd pick of Round 6 in the 2025 NFL Draft. Wester started torching DBs as a sophomore at Florida Atlantic. He led the Owls in all major receiving categories and notched a solid 26% target share. Wester’s production ticked up from 2022-2023 with 169 catches, 1,882 yards, and 16 TDs. He primarily played in the slot. Next came a transfer to Colorado and a chance to play with QB Shedeur Sanders. Wester ranked a clear second behind Travis Hunter in catches (74), yards (931), and TDs (10). He remained a slot target. He had a 4.42 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 23rd among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 19.8%, and 28th among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with a 75.6. He is currently 23 years old with a Breakout Age of 19.4. He ranked 40th among WRs in our Draft Sharks predraft Rookie Model scoring a 5.79. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Josh Downs. Wester moves fluidly in his routes and was a major threat at FAU, but he is simply unlikely to develop into a high-volume target as a pro.
2025 Fantasy Football Impact
Wester produced at FAU before heading to Colorado to pair with QB Shedeur Sanders and WR Travis Hunter.
That early production shows he can play with good hands and nice route running.
He won't make an impact on a Ravens team that has taken Day 3 shots at WR over the past few years.
Dynasty Impact
Wester is unlikely to make an impact long-term for the Ravens either.
He has enough athleticism to make the team, but isn't a pick in rookie drafts.
