BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: Back in Week 1, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney caught just one pass for 15 yards. It looked like he was mostly going to take a backseat to Drake London and Kyle Pitts in this passing attack.
But over the last two games, Mooney has a combined 15 targets. Against the Chiefs in Week 3, he caught all eight targets for 66 yards, marking his second strong showing in a row.
What if we just granted Darnell Mooney TE eligibility and pretended he was Kyle Pitts

It's still a little too soon to trust Mooney in shallower formats, but his high target share makes him an intriguing flex option in full PPR leagues this week. The Saints pass defense has the skill to slow down this offense so don't set your expectations too high, but Mooney will have a strong floor if that's what you're in need of in fantasy leagues in Week 4.
