2024 Fantasy Outlook
London mostly looked the part of an eighth overall pick in his first two NFL seasons, mixing flashes of brilliance with stretches of poor production in a run-heavy Atlanta offense that had some of the worst QB play in the league. He enters Year 3 as one of the most obvious candidates for a big breakout, after the Falcons fired coach Arthur Smith and signed 35-year-old QB Kirk Cousins to a four-year contract. London did take small steps backward between Year 1 and 2 in terms of target share (29.1 percent to 23.1) and per-route production (2.04 to 1.90), but with his catch rate staying right around 62 percent and his yards per catch rising from 12.0 to 13.1. Forty-three WRs ran more routes than his 493 last year, so volume growth alone would be enough to push him well over 1,000 yards. There's also potential for efficiency improvement, of course, with London turning 23 this summer and finally paired with a quality QB. New offensive coordinator Zac Robinson is a bit of an unknown given that he's never called plays before, but he at least figures to favor the passing game and three-wide formations far more than Smith ever did, having spent the past five years under Sean McVay in Los Angeles. London's stiffest target competition comes from other positions, with TE Kyle Pitts and RB Bijan Robinson also sure to be big parts of the offense, while free-agent addition Darnell Mooney is the Falcons' only other WR that has any track record of earning significant targets.

RANKS
Standout performance in loss
London secured 10 of 18 targets for 187 yards and two touchdowns in the Falcons' 44-38 overtime loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The star wideout put together a stellar effort in a game the Falcons need to win to have a chance at a playoff spot, setting a new career high in receiving yards. London comfortably led the Falcons' pass catchers across the board for the afternoon as well, and his 10 grabs vaulted him to exactly 100 receptions for the season. London also finished the 2024 campaign with a career-high nine touchdown grabs courtesy of his 20- and 21-yard scoring catches, and the chemistry he displayed with rookie quarterback Michael Penix over the three games he played with him sends both players into the offseason with plenty of momentum.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
London might not go ahead of Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson if there were a 2022 redraft, but the eighth overall pick showed plenty of signs of his bright future amidst an uneven rookie season. The USC product opened with 214 yards and two TDs his first three weeks before settling into a prolonged slump in an extremely run-heavy offense. London then picked it back up in December to average 6.2 catches and 85.6 yards over his final five games while primarily catching passes from fellow rookie Desmond Ridder, who reportedly will enter 2023 as the starter ahead of offseason addition Taylor Heinicke. Coach Arthur Smith still figures to emphasize the run first and foremost, especially after drafting Bijan Robinson eighth overall this spring, but London saw a massive 29.3 percent target share last season (117 of 400 team targets) and could own a similar portion of the passing game with only TE Kyle Pitts representing serious competition. Also consider that London turns 22 in July, making him the same age as a lot of rookies but with an 866-yard NFL season to his name already.

London is the first player in Falcons franchise history with at least 65 receptions in each of his first three seasons, per Daniel Flick of Sports Illustrated.
ANALYSIS
London's nine catches in the Falcons' 17-13 Week 13 loss to the Chargers brought his season total up to 70 with five games to play. He had 72 catches as a rookie in 2022 and 69 catches in 2023. While London had previously underperformed expectations after being drafted eighth overall in 2022, he's coming into his own in his third NFL season.
