  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: WRs to Start

    Mooney is coming off another dominant game against Tampa Bay in Week 8 with 18.6 PPR points, and he loves facing the Buccaneers. But he should also do well against the Cowboys, and this game could be a shootout with an expected total of 52 points. Dallas hasn't allowed a lot of big games to receivers this season, but five receivers have scored at least 11.3 PPR points against the Cowboys in the past two games. Given the potential for this game to be a high-scoring affair, I like Mooney as a No. 2 Fantasy receiver in the majority of leagues.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Paces air attack in win

    Mooney brought in five of seven targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' 31-26 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. Mooney led the Falcons in receiving yards and targets on the afternoon while recording a touchdown for the fourth time this season on a perfectly timed 30-yard pass from Kirk Cousins late in the second quarter. Mooney has remained healthy and turned into a steady contributor in coordinator Zac Robinson's offense, a welcome change from his previous two seasons with the Bears following an encouraging start to his career. Mooney will next take aim at the Cowboys in a Week 9 home matchup.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: WRs to Start

    Mooney's best game of the season was Week 5 against Tampa Bay when he caught nine passes for 105 yards and two touchdowns on 16 targets for 31.5 PPR points. It's doubtful he gets that many targets again in the rematch in Week 8, but Mooney does have three games in his past five outings with at least eight targets. The Buccaneers are No. 5 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers, and Mooney should be considered a No. 2 Fantasy receiver in all leagues for this week.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Garners eight targets in loss

    Mooney secured five of eight targets for 46 yards during Sunday's 34-14 loss to the Seahawks. Mooney saw at least eight targets for the third time this season, but his 9.2 yards per reception in Week 7 was his second-lowest mark of the campaign. With Kirk Cousins at the helm, Atlanta's passing attack has been fruitful, and Mooney has benefitted. However, Mooney remains the WR2 behind Drake London, with RB Bijan Robinson and TE Kyle Pitts also seeing their fair share of work in the passing attack.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: WRs to Start

    Mooney had a down game in Week 6 at Carolina with 6.8 PPR points, but prior to that he had scored at least 14.6 PPR points in three of his previous four outings. I expect him to get back on track in Week 7 against Seattle. The Seahawks have allowed five receivers to score at least 16.0 PPR points in the past three games against the Lions, Giants and 49ers, and I expect Mooney and Drake London to both perform at a high level in this matchup at home.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Quiet game as RBs shine

    Mooney hauled in three of five targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 38-20 win over Carolina. Mooney was cleared from the minor knee injury that forced him to be a limited participant in practices Wednesday and Thursday. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, the budding wideout didn't sniff last week's impressive 9-105-2 receiving line as Atlanta's rushing attack shouldered the offensive load against Carolina on Sunday. A healthy Mooney remains a viable fantasy option when the Falcons host the Seahawks next Sunday.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Cleared for Week 6

    Mooney (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Carolina. Mooney finished the week as a full practice participant after being limited Wednesday and Thursday. He's coming off the best fantasy performance of his career -- 31.5 PPR points in a 36-30 win over Tampa Bay -- and is averaging 4.8 catches for a career-best 66.0 yards per game on 8.0 targets. Mooney needs just one more TD to match his personal best of four in a season, previously attained his first two years in the league (2020 and 2021).

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Another limited session

    Mooney (knee) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday. Mooney has opened this week with consecutive capped sessions due to a knee injury, giving him just one more chance to get back to full participation before the Falcons potentially tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game at Carolina. Considering he's coming off a 9-105-2 performance on 16 targets last Thursday against the Buccaneers, he's regained some sway in the fantasy realm while working with QB Kirk Cousins.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: WRs to Start

    Mooney has been fantastic this season, and he should have the chance for another quality outing in Week 6 against the Panthers. Mooney has scored at least 14.6 PPR points in three of his past four games, including a monster performance in Week 5 against Tampa Bay with nine catches for 105 yards and two touchdowns on 16 targets. Six receivers have scored at least 17.5 PPR points against Carolina this season, and I like Drake London and Mooney to both do well in this matchup on the road.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Tending to knee issue

    Mooney was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Mooney is coming off a season-best performance against the Buccaneers in Week 5, when he tallied nine catches (on 16 targets) for 105 yards and two touchdowns. He clearly is on the same page with quarterback Kirk Cousins, as the pair already have connected for eight receptions of 20-plus yards through five games. Now that Mooney has made an appearance on the Falcons' first Week 6 practice report, his status will be one to watch as the weekend approaches to ensure he isn't in danger of missing Sunday's contest at Carolina.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Standout night in OT victory

    Mooney brought in nine of 16 targets for 105 yards and two touchdowns in the Falcons' 36-30 overtime win over the Buccaneers on Thursday night. Mooney led the Falcons in receiving touchdowns and targets on the night while checking in second in catches and receiving yards to Drake London. The speedster found the end zone from 24 and 12 yards out in the second and fourth quarters, respectively, his second and third touchdowns of the season and Atlanta tenure. However, as good as Mooney's night was, it could have been marred by a drop of a very catchable third-down pass just past the midway point of the fourth quarter that was followed by a blocked Younghoe Koo field-goal attempt. Ultimately, the Falcons' victory and Mooney's 17-yard grab on his team's game-tying drive late in the fourth quarter helped ensure the gaffe would be insignificant, and the fifth-year pro appears to have burgeoning chemistry with Kirk Cousins heading into a Week 6 road contest against the Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 13.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Continues to be involved

    Mooney caught three of six targets for 56 yards during Sunday's 26-24 win over the Saints. After a quiet Week 1, Mooney has been a critical part of the Falcons' passing attack, racking up 14 receptions (on 21 targets) over the last three weeks. The veteran wideout has averaged 15.0 yards per catch thus far, which is a career-high mark. Former top-10 picks Bijan Robinson, Drake London and Kyle Pitts should theoretically lead Atlanta's offense every week, but that hasn't always been the case. Pitts didn't record a reception on three targets Sunday, while Robinson had only one more touch than backup RB Tyler Allgeier. It appears like Kirk Cousins has developed a nice rapport with Mooney, and that should continue moving forward, especially if the Falcons find themselves behind in games and resort to a pass-happy script. Cousins threw a season-high 35 passes versus New Orleans and is averaging 29.8 attempts per game on the season.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Sleeper WRs

    Mooney had three catches for 88 yards and a touchdown on seven targets at Philadelphia in Week 2, and he followed that up with eight catches for 66 yards on eight targets against Kansas City in Week 3. He will continue to be a staple in Atlanta's offense, and Mooney should be considered a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues in Week 4 against the Saints. Three receivers in the past two games against New Orleans have scored at least 14.2 PPR points, which bodes well for Drake London and Mooney in this matchup.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Week 4 Waiver Priority List

    Mooney was someone we were high on in Week 2 after he had three catches for 88 yards and a touchdown on seven targets at Philadelphia, and he followed that up with eight catches for 66 yards on eight targets against Kansas City in Week 3. He will continue to be a staple in Atlanta's offense, and Mooney should be considered a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues moving forward. He's worth adding for 10-15 percent of your remaining FAB.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Stays hot with eight receptions

    Mooney hauled in all eight of his targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 22-17 loss to Kansas CIty. Mooney kept his momentum rolling following last week's 3-88-1 receiving line with a flawless receiving performance in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs. The newly-signed Falcon brought his season numbers up to 12-169-1 through three weeks, making him a definite deep-league option while likely enticing managers in shallower formats currently viewing Mooney on the waiver wire. Another strong fantasy game from the former Chicago wideout against the Saints next Sunday would likely generate even more fantasy buzz as the NFL inches toward the quarter point of the season.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Week 3 Waiver Priority List

    Mooney should have a prominent role for the Falcons all season as the No. 2 receiver behind Drake London, and his upside was on full display in Week 2 at the Eagles with three catches for 88 yards and a touchdown on seven targets. As Kirk Cousins gets more comfortable in his comeback from last year's Achilles injury, everyone in Atlanta should benefit, including Mooney. He's a potential No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues, and he's worth adding for at least 10 percent of your remaining FAB.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Week 3 Adds (WR Preview)

    Through two weeks Mooney has a 19% target share and leads the Falcons with 153 targeted air yards. If Kirk Cousins can build on Week 2, Mooney could be a weekly upside WR3. He should at least be rostered in all leagues that are PPR and start three wide receivers. He also has contingent upside if something happens to Drake London.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Shows off big-play flair Monday

    Mooney brought in three of seven targets for 88 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' 22-21 win over the Eagles on Monday night. Mooney shared the team lead in targets with Drake London while setting the pace in receiving yards. The speedster got there with three chunk plays through the air, beginning with a 41-yard touchdown grab late in the third quarter. Mooney tacked on catches of 21 and 26 yards on back-to-back plays in Atlanta's game-winning fourth-quarter drive, helping set up an eventual decisive touchdown reception by Drake London. Mooney appears to have plenty of room to grow within Zac Robinson's scheme and clearly is developing some chemistry with Kirk Cousins, affording the fifth-year pro plenty of momentum heading into a Week 3 home showdown against the Chiefs on Sunday night.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Quiet in Falcons debut

    Mooney caught one of three targets for 15 yards during Sunday's 18-10 loss to the Steelers. Mooney operated as the No. 2 wideout, playing 53 of 56 offensive snaps. However, Mooney and Drake London (two receptions for 15 yards) were kept quiet, as Ray-Ray McCloud led Atlanta's wideouts in receiving. Mooney's snap share is promising, but the Falcons' offense will need to find their rhythm for Mooney to generate fantasy-relevant numbers. This was Kirk Cousins' first game since his Achilles injury, as the veteran surprisingly didn't see any action during the preseason. Cousins' comfort level in OC Zac Robinson's scheme will likely be the key factor in Mooney's fantasy value this season.

  • Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Week 1 Waiver Priority List

    The Falcons added Mooney from Chicago this offseason to be their No. 2 receiver opposite Drake London. Mooney will likely be third on the team in targets behind London and Kyle Pitts, but Kirk Cousins should still make Mooney viable several weeks throughout the season. He's a great receiver to stash on your bench, and he could develop into a starter in three-receiver leagues.
