Latest takes

Terry McLaurin
  • Players like Jaylen Warren , Terry McLaurin , Rico Dowdle , Rashee Rice , Jameson Williams , Emeka Egbuka , Quentin Johnston , and Kyle Pitts can all become interesting depending on where they are still available in your draft.

  • The passing attack should also be better with the additions of Stefon Diggs and Chig Okonkwo to complement Terry McLaurin .

  • I’ve touted Terry McLaurin as a nice bounce-back option for fantasy managers to seek out this season, but in shallower formats, I’m not certain he has enough star power to really put you over the edge.

  • Terry McLaurin set career highs across the board in Jayden Daniels ‘ rookie season. If Daniels can stay healthy, McLaurin is set up for another big year.

    Kurt Blakeway· Aug 23
  • I expect the Washington passing attack to be funneled through Diggs and Terry McLaurin.

  • Terry McLaurin followed his WR14 season in 2024 with the worst fantasy finish of his career. A quad injury limited him to ten games, and he finished with only 38 receptions, 582 yards, and three TDs.

  • Terry McLaurin is still the top target in the Commanders’ passing game. I expect them to be much more successful through the air with David Blough calling plays.

  • McLaurin is a target of mine because he doesn’t have much competition for targets of his. The Commanders’ passing game is essentially McLaurin and newly signed Stefon Diggs.

  • While everyone had high hopes for McLaurin in 2025, injuries to him and Jayden Daniels ruined his season.

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 9
  • The Commanders are desperate for a second pass catcher behind Terry McLaurin

  • Round 6: Terry McLaurin (WR – WSH) The Commanders were a train wreck last season, and part of that was Terry McLaurin only playing 10 games.

  • With Deebo Samuel and Zach Ertz gone, only Antonio Williams and Chig Okonkwo were added to this receiving depth chart; McLaurin should return to his target hog WR2 ways in 2026. He’s a strong bounceback candidate.

  • Round 4: Terry McLaurin (WR – WAS) Terry McLaurin was the counter-pick, sitting in an almost identical ADP range as Waddle. The preference here comes down to target-share ceiling: McLaurin’s worst-case target competition still leaves him with a strong floor, while his best case could push into the high-20s percentage range given how thin the target competition around him currently looks.

  • Terry McLaurin (WR – WSH) McLaurin’s 2025 season was derailed almost from the jump by a training camp holdout that eventually turned into a three-year, $96 million contract extension. That kind of disruption tends to torpedo a season, and it did here too.

DJ Moore
  • DJ Moore (WR – BUF) DJ Moore already finished as a WR1 earlier in his career, back in 2023, when his 96/1,364/8 resulted in a WR6 finish.

  • DJ Moore (WR – BUF) The case for a bounce-back for DJ Moore comes down to a new environment and less competition at wide receiver.

  • 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 .

  • 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.

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 26
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • The addition of DJ Moore will certainly hurt Khalil Shakir’s stock, but in a half-PPR league, he’ll have some value.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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
  • 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.

  • Going as the WR27 in PPR leagues, DJ Moore lands on a Buffalo Bills team that desperately needed a go-to option.
