Latest takes
“Atlanta now employs the NFL's third-highest-paid players at tight end and wide receiver, with London scoring a four-year, $141.1MM extension earlier this month.”
Sam Robinson· Jun 24“Drake London is set to anchor the Falcons' receiver room once again in 2026 and well into the future.”
Adam La Rose· Jun 23“The Falcons signed WR Drake London to a long-term extension with a new-money average of $35.26 million per year and a total five-year base value of $157.88 million, including a $33.656 million signing bonus and fully guaranteed compensation through the first two years of the deal.”

“Drake London was in the middle of a top-3 finish through 9 games before injuries cut short his 2025 season, finishing top-10 in fantasy points per game while dominating targets in Atlanta's offense. With volume, talent, and red-zone usage all working in his favor, London profiles as a top-tier fantasy WR1 once again.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jun 11“He will be the target leader for Atlanta and a low-end WR1 for as long as he remains healthy.”
FFToday· Jun 2“London will now be under contract through the 2030 season. He's topped 100 catches and 1000 yards once (2024) in his four-year career. He finished as the WR7 and WR14 the last two seasons in fantasy points per game (half-ppr).”
FFToday· Jun 2“Branch's ability with the ball in his hands should guarantee him at least some role right away in an Atlanta offense without much talent at wideout outside of Drake London.”
Ted Chmyz· May 5
“Whether you prefer Brock Bowers or Trey McBride doesn't really matter. Neither should be drafted this high. McBride caught fire with positive touchdown regression while the Cardinals led the league in passing, and he ran 67 more routes than any tight end in at least 20 years.”
Tom Strachan· Jun 25“Trey McBride was first-team All-Pro after posting 1,200 yards and 11 touchdowns.”
Sharp Football Staff· Jun 24“Trey McBride was excited to have QB Jacoby Brissett back at practice at mandatory minicamp: "I feel like guys are excited that he was here. Guys want him to be here. Obviously, would love to have him in the building, but he's working through some things on his own. So we totally understand that. But you could just tell the presence that he brought today being in the building was awesome."”

“Trey McBride broke franchise records and officially stamped his mark as one of the best TEs in football. McBride racked up 315 PPR points, tying Travis Kelce's legendary 2022 season for the most at the position in over 15 years. Brissett absolutely unlocked him in the red zone, connecting for 10 TDs.”
Brittney Foxworth· Jun 21“McBride caught fire with positive touchdown regression while the Cardinals led the league in passing, and he ran 67 more routes than any tight end in at least 20 years.”
Tom Strachan· Jun 21“Last season, McBride averaged 18.6 PPR points per game, and Bowers averaged 15.5 in 2024, the better season of his two years in the NFL. It's incredibly hard for tight ends to score as highly as the top wide receivers and running backs, and both elite tight ends still have issues to face.”
Tom Strachan· Jun 21“Trey McBride will continue to lead the way, but Yeboah could emerge as a backup ahead of the likes of Elijah Higgins, Tip Reiman, Teagan Quitoriano, Jameson Geers, and Rivaldo Fairweather.”
Ben Levine· Jun 12“He saw a truly absurd 1.93 end-zone targets per game, per the Fantasy Points Data Suite. No other player with as many games played was above 1.06 (Trey McBride).”
Ted Chmyz· Jun 11“The tight end position remains the toughest position to navigate in fantasy football, and if you don't pay up for a top stud like Brock Bowers and Trey McBride, finding the next mid-to-late-round breakout is key.”
Alex Roberts· Jun 8“McBride was the TE1 in total half-PPR points (252.9) and half-PPR points per game (14.9) in 2025. However, McBride's 667 routes run were the most by a tight end in 2025, 156 clear of Travis Kelce's 511 routes in second, and the Cardinals shouldn't be expected to lead the NFL in pass rate over expectation again with Mike LaFleur as their new head coach. Additionally, Jacoby Brissett is currently holding out and the Cardinals drafted Carson Beck in the third round, meaning McBride could be saddled by rookie quarterback play during the fantasy playoffs.”
Josh Shepardson· Jun 7“Nobody questioned McBride's talent, but there were concerns about repeating last season's massive workload and production. Changes within Arizona's offense and questions about future quarterback stability create enough uncertainty for some drafters to rank him behind Bowers.”
FantasyPros Staff· May 30“Trey McBride shattered the NFL record for receptions.”
