Ok, now read a little about him. I like this pick. Really nice try, hopefully pans out. Although we have a couple of young wr's in the pipeline, after Taylor's departure - theres an opening
Here is what I wrote in my WR Rankings about Darnell Mooney:
#39 Darnell Mooney - Tulane
Mooney turned some heads as he ran a 4.38 ’40, but he’s a small guy at 5’ 10” 175 lbs. A starter for three full years, Mooney had decent production. He has some drop issues and will have troubles going up against physical CBs. He could work as a special teamer and reserve receiver.

so, Nagy can scheme this guy open but yeah he'll get mauled by big cbs. it will be interesting to see how we reacts to that (does he keep working) and it's something we can find out in practice when he goes against the 2nd rd db

teams bigger DB's should be on ARob and Miller/Wims. if they put the biggun's on this guy one of the other 3 will have a favorable matchup.

There's been many successful smaller slot receivers (though Mooney prob does need to add 5-10 lbs). If he shows or learns the ability to win releases at the LOS, he will end up being productive. If he's constantly getting knocked off his route or manhandled at/near the LOS, he will end be up being a wasted pick.
I have no doubt Nagy will be able to easily scheme him open if he can get clean releases from the line.
