Mooney has gone from a fifth-round pick out of Tulane to a budding WR1 in a couple of years' time. Between his deep speed, route running and after-the-catch ability, he can win in a variety of ways. Last year, Mooney tied for sixth in total receptions over 15 yards downfield (20), finished sixth in separation rate against single coverage and was one of 22 wide receivers with double-digit broken tackles after the catch (10).
There's reason to believe that Mooney's production is only going to improve from here as he gets comfortable with quarterback Justin Fields. Don't be surprised if the Fields-Mooney connection soon morphs into one of the better young tandems in the NFL.
