BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~140 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~157
ANALYSIS: The Chicago Bears selected wide receiver Darnell Mooney in the fifth round of the 2020 draft, and the former Tulane standout proved to be one of the biggest steals of the draft. With an ADP of pick 157, the sophomore receiver has an opportunity to be a great value in fantasy drafts. Anthony Miller was traded to the Houston Texans, meaning Mooney is now locked in as Chicago’s second option in the passing game. Mooney turned 98 targets into 61 receptions for 631 yards and four touchdowns in his rookie year, largely dealing with horrible quarterback play. In a pass-heavy offense with Justin Fields inevitably taking over as the starter, Mooney could be in for a true breakout season.
In 2020, Mooney had 23 deep targets (11th most) and had 526 unrealized air yards due to Mitchell Trubisky and Nick Foles struggling to get him the ball when he is open. With Justin Fields' ability to throw deep passes in Chicago’s pass-heavy scheme, Mooney will look to improve in every statistical category going into 2021. Allen Robinson draws a lot of attention from opposing defenses, so Mooney can take advantage of going against weaker opposing defensive backs in one-on-one matchups. Mooney is worth a bench spot and has the potential for more in 2021.
