Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin Jr. or DJ Moore

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. continues to have immense dynasty upside, but staying healthy will be a key factor in whether he lives up to his potential. Godwin's fantasy production peaked as the WR2 in 2019, but he had a streak of six consecutive top-32 seasons from 2018 through 2023. Managers would love to see him return to that form. Now that Mike Evans has departed for San Francisco, Godwin has the potential to reassert himself as the top pass catcher in Tampa Bay. Emeka Egbuka has the makings of a future superstar, but he was inconsistent at times last year, setting the stage for Godwin to be the most dependable Bucs receiver in 2026 and beyond. Injuries cost Godwin nearly half of his season last year, but he was productive when healthy, catching 24 passes for 291 yards and two touchdowns from Week 13-17. During that span, he was the WR15 overall. He has fallen to WR48 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings, but that's partly due to his age (30). He could still be productive over the next few years, supporting a Baker Mayfield resurgence after the quarterback's subpar 2025 campaign. If Godwin can be healthy for 15+ games in 2026, he could be a top-24 fantasy receiver.
