Few people were talking about Darnell Mooney this time last season. After four pedestrian seasons in Chicago, Mooney entered the 2025 draft season as WR2 in Atlanta with little buzz about his prospects. Well, he finished the season with career highs across the board in targets (106), receptions (64), receiving yards (992), and receiving TDs (5). Those are solid numbers for what many consider a low-end WR3/high-end WR4.
To be sure, QB Michael Penix Jr. has the arm to utilize Mooney as the deep threat of the team. He led the Falcons in yards per catch with 15.5, and that should repeat in 2025. And since he has solidified his role on the Falcons as a WR2, he is well positioned to pick up where he left off in 2024. Target Mooney somewhere in the low double-digit rounds, and you may have yourself a solid contributor all year long.
FFToday's Take:"A few weeks" is going to drop Mooney's ADP as we roll into August. We're get likely to get more information on the specific injury soon. Perhaps an AC sprain? D.J. Chark was signed by Atlanta late this afternoon.
