WR Drake London was drafted 8th overall by the Atlanta Falcons in the 2022 NFL Draft. The prototypical wideout (6-foot-4) has yet to produce a 1,000 yard season, but his quarterback play has been sub-par at best. Expectations are high this season with a Pro Bowl caliber triggerman in QB Kirk Cousins throwing him the rock this season in Atlanta. Below, we look at Drake London’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.
London heads into his 3rd season with a major QB upgrade and a new OC in Zac Robinson, who comes from a pass-heavy LA Rams system, London should see plenty of opportunities and with the Falcons expected to contend for the NFC South title, the 23-year-old is primed for a breakout season in 2024.

Where should you draft London?
London is shaping up to be a strong fantasy pick for 2024. With the Falcons offense revolving around London, Robinson and TE Kyle Pitts, London stands out as the go-to receiver. Cousins joining the team adds a boost to London’s deep-ball opportunities, which should pay off nicely.
What makes London even more appealing is his favorable schedule, facing the 4th-easiest strength of schedule for WRs this season. The only minor downside is his Week 12 bye, but it’s not during the fantasy playoffs, so it’s manageable.
Despite the bye, London’s potential for a breakout season is too good to pass up. Chase the upside, take advantage of the schedule, and draft London with confidence early in your draft.
