BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 33% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Rookie receiver Rondale Moore will have to endure some growing pains, but there is nothing to hate about that. After playing just 20 offensive snaps (29%) in Week 1, Arizona put him on the field for 28 (46%) this past Sunday and the results were notably better for the freshman, who caught his first touchdown pass as a pro and should keep growing in importance as a key piece of this offense.
It can be said that Christian Kirk and Rondale Moore flipped their roles and levels of production this Sunday in comparison to what happened in Week 1. Kirk fell from 24 PPR points to just 9.5 in W2 compared to Moore's ascension from a 10.8-point player to a 23.4-point one and highest scorer among skill-position Cardinals this weekend. Moore went home Sunday with 7 receptions on a team-leading 8 targets for 114 yards and a score, with a fumble being the only stain in his stat line.
The Cardinals offense is one predicated on two things, 1) Kyler Murray's legs and 2) a ton of wideouts playing on multi-WRs (3+) sets. Arizona's QB has attempted 68 passes compared to just 44 rushes from their tailbacks, and RB James Conner has yet to be targeted, leaving all passes for the receivers and Edmonds (9 targets through two games combined). With A.J. Green's washed-up 2020 season in the rearview mirror and Hopkins as the lone true stud in the receiving corps, odds are Moore ends bulldozing his way into a WR2/WR3 role as we get deep into the season. Make sure to get some shares of Moore before other fantasy GMs catch up to his exploits, starting him in 14+ team leagues and (at least) stashing him in shallower formats while waiting for a confirmation of his WR1/WR2 talent on a larger sample of games.
