BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 48% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney had a strong showing in Thursday's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. With quarterback Kirk Cousins throwing for over 500 yards, there were plenty of opportunities to go around, and Mooney took advantage of this, catching nine of his 16 targets for 105 yards and two touchdowns.

Now look: Cousins isn't going to play this like every week, but it's also not like Mooney was a non-entity before this game or anything. He now has 50 or more yards in four consecutive games, showcasing that he has a high floor in addition to a high ceiling.
There are a lot of mouths to feed in Atlanta, so don't go spending your whole FAAB budget on Mooney or anything like that, but he can be an immediate flex option for your fantasy league if you're in a league where he's still out on the wire.
