Brandon Aiyuk vs Drake London: The Full Breakdown
Brandon Aiyuk and Drake London are both viable fantasy wide receivers heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Brandon Aiyuk averaged 11.8 PPG across 13 games with the San Francisco 49ers, while Drake London posted 14.0 PPG in 12 appearances for the Atlanta Falcons.
A 2.2-PPG gap gives Drake London the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.
Target volume is the story here. Drake London saw 112 targets in 2025, while Brandon Aiyuk drew 82. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Drake London, even in weeks where Brandon Aiyuk posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
Brandon Aiyuk has his bye in Week 9, and Drake London rests in Week 11. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at wide receiver for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
