Darnell Mooney was not a member of the Falcons last season, but he was part of another abysmal passing offense in the Chicago Bears. Chicago's production through the air was minimal, and the limited yardage was primarily produced by D.J. Moore.
After a 140-target, 1055-yard season in 2021, Mooney has averaged 60.5 targets 453.5 yards in the last two years. This production is not particularly inspiring for his fantasy value heading into 2024.
Mooney is the de facto WR2 thanks to a lacking depth chart in Atlanta and Kirk Cousins should be able to prop up Mooney's fantasy value with a couple of spike weeks. But as the fourth option in the offense, Mooney seems like an inconsistent fantasy asset at best. Taking shots at players with unknown upside seems to be a better idea instead of settling for Mooney.

Darnell Mooney nursing a hamstring injury Injury not considered to be serious By: Doug Orth | Mon Nov 18, 4:40 pm
| | Early prognosis is #Falcons WR Darnell Mooney's hamstring injury from Sunday is not serious, per source. (ESPN - Jeremy Fowler)
FFToday's Take: Mooney did not return to Week 10 game against the Broncos after suffering the injury in the third quarter. In addition to the injury not being a serious one, the other bit of good news is that Mooney will get a week to rest with Atlanta going on its bye in Week 12. Assuming he is cleared to play, consider Mooney a strong WR3 option with WR2 upside in Week 13 versus the Chargers.
