Latest takes
“DJ Moore (WR – BUF) Buffalo’s offense enters 2026 with one of the clearest target vacuums in the league. With Stefon Diggs leaving three years ago and no true alpha wide receiver on the roster, the Bills needed a reliable veteran who could immediately step into a featured role. After shaking off a brief lower‑body scare early in camp, DJ Moore returned to full participation and instantly clicked with Josh Allen .”
Lawrence Iacona· Aug 28“DJ Moore (WR – BUF) 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· Aug 27“Moore could have similar success with Allen under center.”

“Odunze still has Colston Loveland to compete with for targets, but without DJ Moore to compete with, Odunze feels like a shoo-in for a 20% target share.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“He’ll score double-digit rushing touchdowns and has a new wide receiver in DJ Moore at his disposal to help bolster his passing numbers.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“The addition of DJ Moore will certainly hurt Khalil Shakir’s stock, but in a half-PPR league, he’ll have some value.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 21“DJ Moore (WR – BUF) Fantasy owners could be gun-shy about drafting DJ Moore after his disappointing 2025 campaign, when he finished with just 145 fantasy points as the WR32.”
Evan Tarracciano· Aug 19“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.”
Tony Martin· Jul 30“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“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
“A 3.0 second time-to-throw average is well above the NFL average (2.76), and while some QBs last year (such as Lamar Jackson and even Brock Purdy ) had longer time-to-throw averages, it's less than ideal for a rookie who is being thrown into the fire.”
Warren Sharp· Aug 28“Knowing when to start Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson to maximize their potential fantasy production becomes a season-long planning exercise. Do you start Ja’Marr Chase against Miami in Week 5?”
Raju Byfield· Aug 25“2026 Fantasy Football Expert Rankings Fantasy Football Dynasty Rankings Fantasy Football Trade Analyzer Best Fantasy Football Rankings 2026 Fantasy Football Draft Advice: TD Regression Candidates Negative Regression Candidates Lamar Jackson (QB – BAL) The single largest negative-regression quarterback in the report, and the clearest sell on the board. Jackson’s 2025 leaned on a 6.95 percent passing touchdown rate that normalizes to 5.96 percent, dropping his adjusted finish three spots.”

“Round 14: Kyler Murray (QB – MIN) Kyler Murray is one of my favorite quarterbacks this season, and with the additional bench slots, I wanted to get him on the team behind Lamar Jackson.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“Round 4: Lamar Jackson (QB – BAL) I don’t find myself in many positions to take someone like Lamar Jackson, but I pulled the trigger here.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“But when Jackson fell to the back end of the sixth round, it was too hard to pass up. I will only draft elite QBs or TEs when they slip past ADP 90% of the time, and this was one of those spots.”
Samwise· Aug 16“Unfortunately, Jackson had arguably his worst season as a starter in 2025. He missed four games because of injury and played part of the year hurt. The superstar finished as the QB14 on a points-per-game basis among qualifying quarterbacks, averaging 19.8 fantasy points per contest. However, I expect a bounce-back season for Jackson, especially with Declan Doyle taking over as Baltimore’s offensive coordinator.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 16“The Ravens dealt with Lamar Jackson being injured on and off for the year, and he still had that finish.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11“Declan Doyle is the new offensive coordinator and early returns are favorable. He comes from the Ben Johnson coaching tree, so I think we will see them use Jackson in ways we haven’t seen before.”
Jason Kamlowsky· Aug 11“Lamar Jackson – 0.58 Most rushing TDs on fewer than 200 carries in 2025: 1”
The FF Newsletter· Aug 6“Lamar Jackson , Jayden Daniels , Joe Burrow , Baker Mayfield , and Kyler Murray all were selected as top-12 players at the position and finished double-digit slots behind expectations in terms of points per game.”
Rich Hribar· Aug 5“If Lamar Jackson can bounce back, Henry could inch back closer to his 2024 production (RB4 in fantasy points per game).”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 5“Injuries and a steep decline in rushing production cratered Lamar Jackson ‘s fantasy value in 2025. After finishing QB1 in fantasy scoring in 2024, Jackson plummeted to a QB20 fantasy finish last season and was QB16 in fantasy points per game at the position. Jackson lost three games to an early-season hamstring injury and one game to a late-season back injury.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 4“Lamar Jackson cratered many fantasy rosters in 2025. Before an early October hamstring injury, he was on pace for 3,700 passing yards, 437 rushing yards, and 47 total TDs.”
Vernon Meighan· Jul 27“The most obvious thing to consider is your positional strengths and weaknesses — trading for Lamar Jackson when you already have Josh Allen probably isn’t a good idea.”
