WR Drake London, ATL (1 Viewer)

Agree that he’s steady and solid, but not spectacular. Part of that may relate to him being used on short to intermediate routes where there aren’t as many YAC opportunities. Down the field seems to be Mooney’s role, and he’s been targeted more than I thought compared to London.
 
I have to admit I bought the hype on this guy. Very very high on many Draft Boards.
However, a pretty underwhelming season.
Many games he has been the 3rd most productive WR on his own team with Mooney AND McCloud outperforming him.
Lots of talent but not producing big numbers.
Broke 100 yard receiving just once this year. 1 TD in last 6 games.
Disappointment.

This is an overreaction. He's still a WR1 on the season, and only in his 3rd year.
 
With Michael Penix starting what do we think it does for London’s outlook this week vs the NYG?

Personally I feel like London’s most likely outcome is a little bit less than his expected output with Cousins. I assume more of a commitment to the run while seeing what Penix has.

Agreed - I think short term it actually may be a downgrade for London as they build chemistry and the Falcons lean on the run game to not overburden Penix. Hard to bench London though because I imagine Penix leans on him when he does air it out.

having the same debate. My thought process....London has been decent with a horrible Cousins...can Penix be worse? Probably not but does Penix spread it out more? run more? and as mentioned, do they lean on the run more vs a bad Giants run defense? probably. I have McLaurin, Jennings, Jonathan Taylor and London to choose between....all are ranked basically within a point of one another. Having a good bench is great except when it comes to the playoffs and these tough calls....pulling my hair out.
 
Cousins has been cratering for the last month, and London's production has been hanging by a thread (see the wide open 30 yard TD saving his 3 target day last week). Maybe London won't hit what he was doing in the middle of the season, but I am more comfortable starting him then I was before the news.

Same. I also don't think he will rely on Mooney as much as K-Chainz did.
