Fantasy Football Player Notes
2025 Half PPR Draft Rankings

2.
Bijan Robinson
RB - (vs . NO)
Freed from the constraints of his rookie-year playcaller, Arthur Smith, Bijan thrived in his second NFL season under new Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson, piling up 1,887 yards from scrimmage and 15 touchdowns. Bijan is sublimely talented and just getting started. I think he deserves to be the first RB off the board in 2025 fantasy drafts.

Drake London
WR - (vs . NO)
London posted career-best numbers across the board in his third NFL season, finishing with 100 catches for 1,271 yards and nine touchdowns on 158 targets. Michael Penix is taking over as Atlanta's starting QB this season, and London really clicked with the young QB when he got a late-season audition last year. In the three starts Penix made at the end of the regular season, London had 22 catches for 352 and two touchdowns on 39 targets. The 6-foot-4 London has a huge wingspan and reliable hands. He has become a blue-chip wide receiver and now warrants a top-15 selection in fantasy drafts.

Darnell Mooney
WR - (vs . NO)
The underrated Darnell Monney finished WR31 last season in half-point PPR fantasy scoring on a 64-992-5 stat line. One of the appealing things about Mooney is that he doesn't come off the field very often. He had a 92.9% snap share last season, and the Falcons made no significant offseason additions at wide receiver. New Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. has abundant arm talent and could conceivably help Mooney eclipse the 1,000-yard mark for the first time since 2021. Mooney looks like a draft bargain as a low-end WR4 or high-end WR5.

Kyle Pitts Sr.
TE - (vs . NO)
The Kyle Pitts hope and hype train is off the tracks. I can't do it. Last year's performance should scare everyone off, even at his depressed cost this season. Last year, Pitts was the TE20 in fantasy points per game. Among 47 qualifying tight ends, Pitts ranked 24th in target share, 19th in receiving yards per game, 26th in yards per route run, and 39th in first downs per route run, per Fantasy Points Data. There's nothing statistically I can point to that gives me hope for 2025 and beyond. Pitts is off my draft board.

Tyler Allgeier
RB - (vs . NO)
Tyler Allgeier remains an elite handcuff option with some standalone flex appeal. Allgeier was the RB45 in fantasy points per game, as he finished as the RB36 or higher in 41% of his games last year. Among 46 qualifying backs, he ranked 22nd in missed tackle rate and 20th in yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). If Bijan Robinson were to miss any time, Allgeier would immediately vault into RB1/2 territory.

Michael Penix Jr.
QB - (vs . NO)
Michael Penix heads into the 2025 season as the Falcons' unquestioned starting quarterback after sitting behind Kirk Cousins for most of the 2024 season. Penix did make three late-season starts, completing 58% of his throws in those games, averaging 245.7 passing yards per game and 7.4 yards per attempt, with three touchdowns and three interceptions. Penix is a pocket passer who doesn't offer much rushing upside, but he has a powerful and accurate arm. He led FBS in passing yardage in each of his final two college seasons at Washington. Penix has the potential to return a small profit on his low-end QB2 price tag.
