Who Should I Start? DeVante Parker or DJ Moore

Monday, May 20, 8:11 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVante Parker announced his retirement on Monday evening. The 31-year-old, who signed with the Eagles in March, was once one of the NFL's most promising wideouts. He spent most of his career in Miami, where he had the best season of his career in 2019 by amassing 1,202 yards and nine touchdowns off 72 receptions. Parker spent a few more years in Miami before suiting up for the Patriots over the last two seasons. However, he was nowhere near as productive as he was in 2019, so New England released him. The 31-year-old will finish his NFL career by totaling 690 catches for 5,660 yards and 27 touchdowns.

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore has been an afterthought in Ben Johnson's offense so far this season. Through six games, Moore has hauled in 22 of 31 targets for 258 yards and one touchdown, putting him on pace to finish as the WR50 in PPR formats. While he continues to play a heavy 88% snap share, his 16.8% target share ranks just 77th in the league, a far cry from his usual alpha role. With the Bears leaning heavily on the run game and Rome Odunze emerging as the top option through the air, Moore has been left searching for consistency. However, Week 8 offers a prime get-right opportunity against a Ravens defense that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Moore carries FLEX appeal in Week 8 and could finally deliver a spark to his otherwise quiet campaign.
