You get Isaiah likely, you take Mooney. It's not the best thing, but it's, it's perfectly reasonable.

STACKED’s take

NeutralValue

Mooney pairs reasonably with Likely in back-stack strategies.

JJ Zachariason pairs Darnell Mooney with Isaiah Likely as a back-stack option in the fifth-to-eighth round range. While not ideal, the pairing is perfectly reasonable for generating points without a true number one receiver.
