After being selected No. 8 overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, Drake London had a couple of solid seasons to begin his career. But the big wide receiver had the breakout that Atlanta was hoping for in 2024, finishing with 100 receptions for 1,271 yards and nine touchdowns. London was even having a terrific season with Kirk Cousins under center, but in a small sample, he might be able to take his game to the next level with Michael Penix Jr. at quarterback in 2025.
Through the first 14 games of the season, London was well on pace to get his 1,000-yard season, while averaging 8.5 targets per game. However, with Penix taking over for the final three games of the regular season, London put up elite numbers on insane volume. London finished those three games averaging 117.3 yards on 13 targets per game. He also hauled in two touchdowns in those three games on a total of six end zone targets — an elite average of two per contest.
Atlanta’s defense finished in the bottom third of the league in 2024, and with a win total set at 7.5, there’s plenty of reasons to believe the Falcons should have game scripts to be playing from behind this season. Atlanta also plays 12 of its game indoors this season, which bodes well for London’s playing conditions.
While season-long overs can always be risky, London has done a good job of staying on the field in his NFL career, missing just one game in three seasons. With a full season of Penix taking the snaps, the sky is the ceiling for London. I’ll back him to build upon his breakout and put up some monster numbers in 2025.
Player Prop: Drake London OVER 1050.5 Receiving Yards (-110) – 1-unit
Player Prop: Drake London OVER 6.5 Receiving Touchdowns (-130) – 1-unit
