Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London caught five passes for 96 yards versus the New Orleans Saints in Week 4. He was targeted six times in the win.
Why It Matters: Although he fell well short of his 9-194-0 outing in Green Bay, London was still the focal point of the passing game on a night that Atlanta leaned on its running attack to dominate the Saints. Having an offense that’s built around the running game isn’t ideal for a receiver, but there’s no obvious No. 2 option when the Falcons do go to the air, and London’s sure hands and ability to find space makes him an ideal fit for the risk-averse Michael Penix Jr. London is low-end WR1 or strong WR2.
