BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 42% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Cleveland Browns wide receiver Elijah Moore seemed to get things clicking with Deshaun Watson, but now will be without his starting quarterback for the rest of the year. The ceiling of the Cleveland offense took a big hit, lowering how good Moore will be on a weekly basis.
With Deshaun Watson now on IR and rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson set to be the starter for the rest of the season, Moore's fantasy appeal took a big hit. It wasn't very high even with Watson and it'll be worse with DTR. However, he's still worth an add in any PPR-scoring league. He has seven or more targets in seven out of 10 games. He also has racked up four or more receptions in five games this season.
He's only gone over 50 yards on two occasions, but one of those weeks was this past weekend with the rookie under center. He had seven targets this past weekend and caught six of them for 60 yards. The weekly ceiling will not be very high with the rookie. The receiving yardage hasn't been there all season and it's hard to expect there to be many passing touchdowns in the coming weeks. However, Moore should be good for 3-5 receptions most weeks and 30-50 yards. It's not super exciting, but he can be an okay bench option.
