BALLER MOVE: Start In All Formats
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 with WR1 upside
ANALYSIS: DJ Moore had a fantastic season in 2023, accumulating 1,346 yards and scoring eight touchdowns. Those numbers were good enough for the WR6 finish in PPR scoring formats. Although Moore’s value has dropped a little due to an increase in his team’s receiving talent, he should still be a valuable fantasy player and is a must-start in Week 1.
The Chicago Bears completely revamped their offense this past offseason, adding Keenan Allen via trade and drafting Caleb Williams and Rome Odunze with the first and ninth picks in the NFL draft.
With the addition of two new receivers (one great and one with great potential), Moore’s target share is expected to decrease. In 2023, Moore was targeted 136 times, with the next-best Bears receiver (Darnell Mooney) having only 61. The targets will likely look much more spread out across the new big-3 in 2024.
Still, Moore is expected to be the Bears’ WR1 and will be a valuable fantasy asset all season long. He may not be able to repeat his success last year and finish as a top-10 fantasy receiver, but he should still finish in the top 20. He is a lock to start weekly in pretty much all fantasy leagues.
