Risk Flags
6- Depth Chart
Mumpfield sits at best WR4 behind Nacua (2025 NFL reception leader, 129 rec/1,715 yds/10 TD), Adams (2yr/$44M), and Jordan Whittington (comparable value). With CJ Daniels just drafted in R6, there are now six mouths ahead of or competing with him for the same snaps.
- Target Volume
Mumpfield finished 2025 with just 10 receptions on 23 targets. Despite playing all 17 games, he struggled to establish consistent snap share behind Puka Nacua (1,715 yards, 129 receptions) and Davante Adams (3,547 dynasty value), both elite options commanding target volume.
- Proven Production
Finished 2025 with just 10 receptions on 23 targets for 92 yards and 1 TD across 17 games. His 4.0 yards per target and 3.8% target share show he struggled to capitalize even as the WR5 on the depth chart behind Whittington and Atwell.
- Target Competition
Buried behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams (2yr/$44M), with Jordan Whittington, Xavier Smith, and 2026 rookie CJ Daniels also competing for the limited remaining snaps. There is no clear path to meaningful volume while both starters are healthy.
- Production Concerns
13 GP, just 30.4 total points (2.3 PPG, PPR #127) with a 23% snap share trending down. Reportedly caught only 10 of 23 targets, showing contested-catch and separation limitations.
- Draft Capital
The Rams traded up within R6 to select CJ Daniels (elite hands, 2.1% drop rate, models his game after Adams), signaling organizational intent to develop another receiver behind Nacua and Adams. While a 6th-round pick rarely starts immediately, it adds another body competing for the same developmental WR3/4 roster spot.
