Wester’s numbers speak for themselves—74 catches, 931 yards, and 10 touchdowns in 2024 alone. But it wasn’t just the stats. He was the guy you needed to get the ball to when it mattered. That 43-yard Hail Mary catch against Baylor? That was vintage Wester—clutch, explosive, and damn near fearless.
Now, the Baltimore Ravens are betting on that same spark—using a sixth-round pick to grab the shifty slot receiver who just might end up one of the biggest steals in this year’s draft.
With MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson and a Ravens team that’s always looking for playmakers, Wester’s ability to torch defenses in the slot and take punts to the house gives him a real shot to make the 53-man roster. And Ravens GM Eric DeCosta made it clear—they want him to compete for the return job right away.
This is the same guy who recorded the second-highest acceleration ever tracked at the Shrine Bowl. He’s got that twitchy, Zay Flowers-type juice.
And he’s walking into a situation where his skill set actually fills a need.
Buffs fans, we saw it. Now Ravens fans are about to fall in love with it.
