Drake London
vs Puka Nacua

“We needed the Falcons to stop making an offense built around Bijan Robinson and Drake London look like such a difficult assignment. Bijan piling up 213 scrimmage yards with two TDs, and London catching nine passes for 194 yards is a pretty convincing argument for getting your best players the friggin’ ball. That is why you should be encouraged by Penix.”

“Drake London gets a boost now that Penix Jr. is Atlanta’s starting QB, with 16.4 fantasy PPG with Penix Jr.”

“Atlanta has not reached the red zone through two games, and London has yet to see a red-zone or deep target. Michael Penix Jr. returning should help, but Green Bay has been tough on perimeter receivers, so I am not expecting the quarterback change to fix everything right away. I would still start London in most leagues, but I think he is more likely to give you a low-end WR2 week than play up to that top-30 flex ranking.” – Justin Fuhr ( Pro Football Mania )”

“London has an 18.5% target share, 1.78 YPRR, zero red zone targets, zero deep targets, and a team-leading 20% first-read share. London hasn’t been bad, as he ranks 25th in separation score among 101 qualifying receivers after two weeks, but he can’t throw accurate passes to himself. We’ll see if he can get on track this week against a secondary that has held perimeter wide receivers to the sixth-fewest yards per target, but has allowed the 13th-most fantasy points per opportunity to the position.”

“London can still rebound, but if he’s going to reach his WR1 ceiling, he needs Michael Penix or Tua Tagovailoa to return. Until then, he’s more of a boom-or-bust WR2/3. For a guy with a second-round price tag, panic is definitely valid.”

“Falcons WR Drake London had just two catches for 29 yards on four targets and TE Kyle Pitts failed to catch his lone target. “Bijan is a great player. We are going to continue leaning on him, but we have to find ways to get all of our guys touches,” Falcons HC Kevin Stefanski said via the Athletic’s Josh Kendall .”

“Puka Nacua (+550) is the current favorite to lead the league in receiving yards for the 2026 NFL Season.”

“Puka Nacua (WR – LAR) Averages 26 PPR Points Per Game The prediction: Nacua could become the first wide receiver since 2013 to average 26 PPR points per game across a full season. In his genuinely healthy games last year, excluding a stretch lost to an ankle injury, he already averaged nearly 25 points per game, and a simple touchdown redistribution, flipping his own total with a teammate’s, would have been enough to push him over that 26-point threshold. Only two wide receiver seasons since 2013 have even topped 25 points per game.”

“Nacua is coming off a career-high 10 receiving touchdowns, which, until 2025, had been the only area of his game that lacked, having scored nine in the previous two seasons combined. Perhaps with an improved defense, the Rams won’t be quite as pass-heavy this year, but Sean McVay has nearly always been aggressive.”

“Left practice on Tuesday with groin soreness Rams WR Puka Nacua , who left practice while walking with a trainer, is dealing with minor soreness in his groin, I'm told.”

“Perhaps with an improving defense the Rams don’t go quite as pass-heavy this year, but Sean McVay has nearly always been aggressive and while Matthew Stafford is healthy, Nacua deserves to be a top pick.”

“Having Davante Adams and Puka Nacua has elevated his fantasy value, and the Rams are built to make one more run with Stafford under center.”

“Round 1: Puka Nacua (WR – LAR) The counter-pick was Puka Nacua , ranked as the top overall wide receiver ahead of the field’s other top options. Only two players outscored him in fantasy points per game last year, and neither was one of the running backs typically drafted with the first or second overall pick.”

“Nacua is coming off another incredible season, leading the league in receptions (129) for 1,715 yards (2nd) and 10 touchdowns (tied for 6th). He has averaged 7.1 receptions (2nd) and 95.3 yards per game (1st) since entering the league.”

“Landing the league leader in catches and receiving yards at pick 1.05 is never a bad thing. With Matthew Stafford under center, Puka Nacua is set up for another monster year.”

“Nacua led the league in receptions (129) and receiving yards per game (107.7) in 2025. He averaged an outrageous 3.57 yards per route run last season and has averaged 3.16 YPRR for his career.”
