Bottom Line

The stars are aligning for London to break out in Year 3.

Ditching the Arthur Smith offense for a modern offense that utilizes its talent is a welcome change. In addition, the massive QB upgrade to Kirk Cousins gives London the best chance to hit his WR1 ceiling.

His ADP as a WR1 reflects the pure potential London has. We are on board in our 2024 WR rankings, expecting London to make that same impact.

What We Learned Last Year

  • London’s per-game stat lines were similar to his 2022 rookie season:
    • 6.3 targets (down from 6.9)
    • 4.1 receptions (down from 4.2)
    • 54.1 yards (up from 50.9)
    • 13.3 yards per catch (up from 12.0)
    • 0.1 TDs (down from 0.2)
  • His per-game statistics decreased when Taylor Heinicke was playing over Desmond Ridder:
    • 6.25 targets
    • 3.75 receptions
    • 46.5 yards
    • 12.4 yards per catch
    • 0 TDs
  • London ranked as the PPR WR41 in total fantasy points (166.3) and WR45 in points per game (6.3).
  • He missed one game last year (Week 9) with a groin injury. It is the only missed game of his career.
  • He had two top-12 finishes. He also had eight WR37 or worse finishes.
  • London’s target share dipped from 29.3% in 2022 (sixth best among WRs) to 23.1% (27th best among WRs).
  • Among 92 WRs with 40+ targets, London ranked:
    • 25th in PFF’s receiving grade
    • 32nd in yards per route run (1.87)
    • 45th in average target depth (11.7)
  • Among those same WRs, London was 90th in average separation yards (2.2), per NFL Next Gen Stats.

What to Expect in 2024

  • London will play under HC Raheem Morris and first-time OC and play-caller Zac Robinson.
    • Robinson has been on the Rams’ staff since 2019 under Sean McVay, working as the QB coach and pass game coordinator since 2022.
    • Under Robinson, the Rams averaged 628 passes per season.
  • Kirk Cousins signed with the Falcons and will provide a significant QB upgrade
    • Last season Cousins had a superior 85.1 PFF passing grade compared to Desmond Ridder (53.2) and Taylor Heinicke (48.5)
  • The Falcons are expected to be pretty good. They lead the NFC South with a 9.5 win total at most sportsbooks.
  • This expectation of success is largely due to Cousins joining the team. The Falcons’ Super Bowl odds jumped from +4000 before Cousins to +2800 after he signed.
  • London enters his 3rd season at 23 years old. According to our aging curve research, the average WR with London’s profile produces 94% of his peak value at age-23.

Drake London Quiet Against Buccaneers

Falcons WR Drake London only caught four of his six targets for 34 yards in the Falcons win over the Buccaneers. On a day when QB Kirk Cousins threw for 276 yards and four TDs, London came up on the short end of the stick.

Falcons WR Drake London has caught a TD in three straight games and in five of the last six. He finished catching 6-of-8 targets against the Seahawks for 63 yards and a TD.

Falcons WR Drake London caught 12 of 13 targets for 154 yards and a score in Thursday night's 36-30 overtime win over the Bucs. Atlanta attacked the seams of Tampa Bay's Cover 3 defense all night, with London doing a lot of the damage. He opened the scoring with an 18-yard catch-and-run TD on the first drive of the game. London created big separation and then spun off a would-be tackler to get into the end zone. He had four other catches of 15+ yards on the night, including an 18-yarder on third and three in overtime. London appeared to suffer a chest injury on that catch and exited the game. WR KhaDarel Hodge, filling in for London, scored the game-winning TD on the next play. London did a post-game interview and was going bananas in the post-game locker room celebration, though, so it doesn't seem like the injury is serious.

Falcons WR Drake London had another solid game leading the Falcons in targets on Sunday Night Football. He ended the game catching six of his nine targets for 67 yards and an early TD.

Drake London tallied 6 receptions for 54 yards and a TD in Monday night's win at Philadelphia. His 7 targets tied for the team lead and constituted 24% of QB Kirk Cousins' pass attempts for the game. London's fantasy line would have looked much worse, however, without a 7-yard TD catch near the end of regulation.

Dynasty Write-up
London's second season proved frustrating alongside HC Arthur Smith and a revolving door at QB. With Smith out of the picture and a QB upgrade in Kirk Cousins -- perhaps Michael Penix Jr. -- London will retain a WR1 ceiling. He's only 23.
