Latest takes
“Of course, with DJ Moore coming to town, that’ll drop, but in a half-PPR league, Shakir is a fine option in the 11th round”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 6“However, I’m imploring you to go after the market share of the receiving work in PPR formats, because DJ Moore is an extremely cheap bellcow WR.”
Tony Martin· Jul 30“A Case Study at the Round 4 Turn Currently in best ball ADP, DJ Moore and David Montgomery are priced right next to each other, with average draft positions of 47 and 48, as of July 27th.”

“However, the Bills seem positive their offense will take a step forward this year with the addition of DJ Moore under new head coach Joe Brady.”
Tom Strachan· Jul 25“Moore has a new home for 2026 and beyond after being traded to Buffalo as Josh Allen ‘s new WR1.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 21“Going as the WR27 in PPR leagues, DJ Moore lands on a Buffalo Bills team that desperately needed a go-to option.”
Richard Janvrin· Jul 20“Obviously, it wasn’t a great season in 2025 for DJ Moore. Despite popping up for some big plays, he is coming off career lows in receptions and receiving yards.”
Matthew Betz· Jul 19“After years of dealing with subpar quarterbacks, Moore gets to play with Josh Allen in 2026. Yet, he has been productive, averaging 14 or more PPR fantasy points per game in five of seven seasons since his rookie year despite never being an elite touchdown scorer.”
Mike Fanelli· Jul 3“DJ Moore will finish the season as a WR1. Coming off the worst season of his career (50 REC, 682 YDS, 6 TDs, WR35 in Half PPR), Moore was traded from the Bears to the Bills. He is now catching passes from arguably the best QB in the league, Josh Allen.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 2“Both Brown and Erickson believe playing with Josh Allen creates a dramatically different fantasy outlook than Moore has experienced previously. Brown also argued that Buffalo didn't acquire Moore simply to make him another complementary piece. The expectation is that Moore becomes a featured receiver within the offense.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jun 28“Despite disappointing production, Brown noted Moore continued creating separation and winning routes at a strong rate. Those indicators suggest the talent remains intact, even if the fantasy numbers didn't reflect it.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jun 28“Moore is being drafted as the WR22, but fantasy has always priced him as if he were about to be more than he usually is; his career has mostly lived in that WR2 range: WR22, WR20, WR22, WR18, WR17. The outlier was the 2023 eruption, and that season is doing a lot of emotional heavy lifting in his current price.”
Chris Cash· Jun 20“DJ Moore is the favorite to lead the team in targets after Buffalo sent a second-round pick to Chicago to acquire him this offseason, and if his ADP sticks around the round 5-6 turn, it will be hard to turn down his potential targets from Josh Allen in 2026.”
Aaron Larson· Jun 18“Moore averaged a solid 135 targets per season and 27% target share from 2019-2024, and his reunion with Joe Brady gives him the potential to regain a 25%+ target share, which would equate to 125-150 Josh Allen targets.”
Aaron Larson· Jun 18“The Bears shipped D.J. Moore out of Chicago to Buffalo just before the start of free agency. Moore is now set to play with the best quarterback talent of his career in Josh Allen. Entering his age-29 season and coming off a down year, Moore has bust potential. However, he is still a player I'd be eager to take at his current ADP with him set as the WR1 in an Allen-led offense.”
Edward DeLauter· Mar 19
“Tet is the one who already showed us the workload and is still being priced like we’re guessing.” – Jay Henry Ocho ( Jay Henry Ocho ) Jameson Williams (WR – DET) “ Jameson Williams is the type of player that can perform like a WR1 more often than he performs like a WR3.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11“Perhaps the ceiling gets capped slightly if Jameson Williams trends upwards and Sam LaPorta is healthier, but the Lions were bad last year, and the most important thing is that they might have a competent play-caller once again in Drew Petzing, who said they want to lean into what Jared Goff does best by using play action heavily.”
Tom Strachan· Aug 11“Williams has posted two straight 1,000-yard seasons, and the usage shift that fueled his second one wasn’t just about a teammate’s absence, but a genuine in-season change in play-calling that got him the ball closer to the line of scrimmage to use his after-the-catch ability rather than deploying him purely as a decoy running deep routes.”

“The Fantasy Hitman was hoping to get Christian Watson before being sniped, so he settled for another explosive home run hitter in Williams. With his trio of WRs including the uncertainty in Nabers, Williams adds a big-play element to the consistency of Smith and gives Mike a very solid start to his draft.”
Kurt Mullen· Aug 7“20 come from two buckets: Hyper-specified role players (Stefon Diggs, Rashee Rice) Guys with other top 24 or strong ancillary target competition (Both Rams WRs, Jameson Williams, CeeDee Lamb, Tee Higgins, Quentin Johnston with Ladd McConkey/Keenan Allen) You may notice there’s one guy on this list who fits in neither, and it’s Thundering Herd legend Christian Watson (shout out to NDSU).”
Tony Martin· Jul 30“Despite finishing WR21 in PPR points per game, Jameson Williams remains too volatile to trust in lineups.”
Kyle Zeigler· Jul 28“Jameson Williams is always electrifying to watch, and he’s coming off a season where he caught 65 passes for 1,117 yards and seven touchdowns.”
Richard Janvrin· Jul 28“Jameson Williams is one of the most volatile wideouts in fantasy. Think back to the beginning of last season, when he gave you dud after dud, making you consider benching him, only to watch him go off in the one time you didn’t start him.”
Frank Ammirante· Jul 27“Jameson Williams (WR – DET) Anyone who plays in best ball fantasy football leagues loves the thought of drafting Williams. The former Alabama star is one of the most dangerous players in the NFL when at his best and can score a touchdown on nearly any play.”
Mike Fanelli· Jul 25“Jameson Williams (DET) – ADP 61.9 | WR25 Last season, Williams quietly finished as the WR12, showing what a down year it was at the wide receiver position.”
Mike Fanelli· Jul 20“What about the WRs? It seems like Jameson Williams is a point of conversation every year, and this year is no different. 2025 was kind of weird for him.”
Maggie Thraen· Jul 19“Detroit WR Jameson Williams received an honorable mention on this list: “He can fly and is slippery. His speed opens up intermediate cuts.”
Wyatt Grindley· Jul 19“Furthermore, Williams was hard to trust every week, scoring 6.6 or fewer fantasy points in 41.2% of the games, including zero twice. Fantasy players should avoid drafting the former Alabama star at his current fifth-round and WR24 ADP and target a pass catcher with less volatility.”
Mike Fanelli· Jul 17“Detroit is excited about WR Jameson Williams' trajectory after showing "effort and engagement" during OTAs and developing as a route runner.”
Wyatt Grindley· Jul 11“With a new offensive play caller and a healthy LaPorta expected to reclaim a significant role, Erickson believes Williams could return to being a volatile weekly option. The concern is the inconsistency that comes with relying on big plays and fluctuating target volume.”
