I can see mooney being our slot guy like Tyler Gabriel was. He is so quick and fast. Throw the quick out let 1 or 2 throw a block or have a lineman pull out and block and let him run.
Really enjoyed the hypothetical conversation about who the best 3rd WR in this offense would be from a schematic standpoint. Like you both said Mooney isn't incredible but he provides solid speed, spacing and hands for an accurate passer like Kirk. Not a Falcons fan but Keon Coleman to Atlanta in the 2nd would be money. Keeps up both themes of 'plus size' and 'plus versatility' in this offense. Mooney would be the exception to the size rule but this offense needs a 'clearout' guy really bad.
Thank you! We had a solid slot receiver in Tyler Gabriel years ago and he made plays like Mooney. Throw quick outs and let him run. He's quick and fast, has a pretty good route tree. He will do great if Atlanta uses him right.
@RoyalJester27 Yeah I think so, Rondale Moore adds another wrinkle to that as well. I just like the offensive pieces the Falcons have had for a few years and I think even just a competent QB like Kirk can open up the offense alot more. I actually like Arthur Smith's offense on paper but for some reason it just didn't work.
Here to tell you it probably wasn't personal when Mooney was not made a pass attempt to by Fields. Ever noticed what happens to JF after he is forced to look past the first progression?
@@BobSmith-u4yand his underlying analytics r elite… he gets open on 1v1… and his QBs have missed him deep non stop… Kirk has been top 3 in accuracy since 2018
2 more is a bit much unless you talking 4th round and beyond. after this signing i fully expect falcons to focus on EDGE, Linebackers, and a CB personally gonna go hard on defense this draft maybe an Offensive Lineman sprinkled in
I think we get a edge in that 8 spot but yeah, I’m talking like 4 round and beyond for the receivers. We have 2 second round picks and 2 3rd round picks and don’t forget we just have two receivers on the roster. I think we can sign some corners back from last year for a small number. I think Clark Phillips will be a stud
It's going to be some fireworks in Atlanta.Kirk Cousins last 17gms 4,795yds 35tds 11ints.Darnell Mooney will contribute, but too many mouths to feed.Drake London,Kyle Pitts,Bijan Robinson,Rondale Moore.
As a Falcons fans, I can assure you that Kyle Pitts is not a WR. Whenever he plays outside, he gets dominated by corners. He is a slot receiver/tight end who can't block.
They should have pushed for Tee Higgins in my opinion, resign Van Jefferson and draft a rookie. Mooney has done nothing to deserve that contract whatsoever.
Falcons fan here and I'm really not feeling happy about this signing. That's a lot of money for a guy with not a lot of production. I'd have rather them make a WR pick at #8 and get an elite talent.
@@ATLfalcons808 i dont think a jamaal anderson vic beasley or takk mickinney will help much we dont draft edge players well. A julio jones or drake london or even roddy white or calvin ridley will help team histori ally falcons hig rate with wrs much higher and with this class i want them to take one
Falcons continue to lose this offseason imo. Kirk is Not gonna be 100% start of camp and when joining a new team that is gonna hurt. Chemistry is everything for a QB and his WRs. New offense scheme. I think people expectations of the Falcons are going to be tempered once season starts. Think of all the time players (QB,RB,WR) hold out for contract issues during off season and that same year when they play how bad of a season they have. I have the same feeling about Kirk. He’s not gonna be ready. But we’ll see. And hey guys can you tell your Underdog draft staff to stop kicking my drafts back??! Please. It’s bs. I’m a sicko that does this as a side hustle and after hours of drafting and finally getting some that I’m super happy with only to get it kicked back as if I’m a bot or something. Anyhow. Keep up the good hard worj
No Kirk has been under ad thrive under this scheme it's the same scheme he was in, In Minnesota. Zac Robinson actually work with cousins in Washington so again learn the situation before you say something
I mean yeah there are definitely some risks but Kirk was the best qb in free agency and fits the system. Can’t make final conclusions without seeing how they do on the field
Mooney gonna be in the tutu atwell/jordan Addison role for the falcons. Can’t wait to watch
Appreciate the highlights with the discussion.
I would love to see ATL draft Ladd Mcconkey as the 3rd wide receiver!
Exactly...
I was just telling my nephew the same thing.
💯
As a uga fan, no thanks. So supremely talented but he couldn’t even survive a full season in the sec. The nfl is gonna beat him up
Atlanta don't draft uga players
Heck no, he’s Glass Joe!
Awesome video! I love listening to you guys talk about the moves and being able to watch the A22 at the same time.
Thanks for watching nick!
It felt personal the way Fields missed him on every wide open deep ball.

More likely, it's going to be Rondale Moore in the slot. Mooney is fast, but I think Moore is slightly quicker.

We still need about 2 more solid receiving options
Great vid! Looking forward to seeing a “Why the Bengals signed Zach Moss”

Wise words
Darnell Mooney made 3x the guaranteed money of 200+ touch RBs. WILD TIMES BOYS!
Yeah, its cause Wrs are less injury prone, and they usually don't drop off a cliff as fast, like Austin Ekeler last year
@@BobSmith-u4yand his underlying analytics r elite… he gets open on 1v1… and his QBs have missed him deep non stop… Kirk has been top 3 in accuracy since 2018
Imo Latu is the best EDGE in the draft. He had way more production than Turner. I hope they don’t fall in love with Turner’s combine
i love it, getting back to the shanahan style offense
He did have a 1k yards one season
Bear fan. I always liked Mooney. He can make the difficult catch. He needs more balls!
Feels the Muhammad Sanu signing
I overdrafted. I need to drop either mooney or jameson williams. Who would you drop?
Bear fan here, Mooney is a solid wr. Justin was the reason Mooney numbers dropped. Plus Ryan Pace drafted him in Chicago.
CAP!!!, His best year was With Justin Fields at QB
@@darkcity2004it wasn’t it was before fields I thikk
No, it was more because of Moore
Bears fan here and disagree. Mooney had trouble getting open, trouble catching passes, and couldn't be a good second option to DJ.
I'm so sick of these JF1 haters!! Now its his fault, because of Mooneys drop in production.
We have to get one more guy with the second round pick and i think ladd would be perfect.
Falcons fan here since the Vick era. How y’all feel about Brock Bowers?
Sign Hasson Reddick draft odunze we lit
We still need to draft at least 2 more receivers. I like this draft of wr
2 more is a bit much unless you talking 4th round and beyond. after this signing i fully expect falcons to focus on EDGE, Linebackers, and a CB personally gonna go hard on defense this draft maybe an Offensive Lineman sprinkled in
@@trippytree3889I definitely agree on the edge, I do think we could do with another wr though, not 2 but another would be nice.

As a falcons fan i will love to get
Tee Higgins
As a Falcons fans, I can assure you that Kyle Pitts is not a WR. Whenever he plays outside, he gets dominated by corners. He is a slot receiver/tight end who can't block.
Bro what this man a tight end and a wr fused
It was Cousins himself that recruited Darnell Mooney
EVERY QB IS STREAKY
Mooney didn't fit in the Bears system last year. Mooney is a perfect fit for Atlanta. He was a WR 1 in 2021-2022
Kirk will get the best from Mooney
OK. After this, we need to sign/draft DEFENSE/OL
Dallas turner at 8 then maybe wishful thinking but if Ladd falls in the second would be nice
Don't know this guy....PLENTY of great receivers in the draft( McConkey is one)!!
When Mooney played with Fields he was terrible, when he played with pocket passers he blew up Dalton and Foles. Now he’s playing with Cousins
why would the falcons trade out of 8 when they will have their pick of EDGE why trade down and miss out on EDGE. makes no sense to me
Latu and Verse are not bad options at all.
THE ATLANTA FALCONS NEED JARED VERSE!!!!
No sir
I like Dallas Turner
I would rather get Calvin Ridley if he could have come back to ATL
He may be getting a ton of money when he signs this afternoon at 4:01. More than we would pay.
@@bravefalcon1970confirmed
Holy smokes. He got a whole lot more than Mooney. More than twice.
That ship has sailed. The Brass didn't want him back here. Ridley will be fine in Tennessee.
I wish the Falcons could land Brock Bowers!
Why don't we draft Brock Bowers and put kyle pitts at WR2
They should have pushed for Tee Higgins in my opinion, resign Van Jefferson and draft a rookie. Mooney has done nothing to deserve that contract whatsoever.
Dropped to many balls and afraid to take a hit. Don't like the signing.
they signed him to get hurt right before the season 😂
Overpay.
Injury,

13m a year isn’t bad imo in order to draft a bigger need round 1. Atlanta gonna be crazy with cousins, pitts, London, Mooney, RB tandem 🤯
I hope one of big 3 make it to 8 or trade up for odunze. Rise up
@@MichaelHawkins-yd6geare slow us getting Mooney means we’re going edge with the 8th pick🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

Signing Mooney doesn’t mean the Falcons won’t take Odunze or Nabers if they fall to 8
Pitts is not a good route runner
Ewwwww. Mooney.
It's better than nothing
