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 is coming off his best game of the season in Week 8 against the Ravens, catching four of his seven targets for a season high 73 yards. It's been an otherwise down year for the 28-year-old, failing to exceed 70 yards in every other game and scoring only one touchdown. His target share has dipped to just 17.3% in Ben Johnson's offense after being above 26% in both of his first two seasons in Chicago. Moore will have a chance to get back on track in Week 9 against a Bengals defense that hasn't slowed down any opponent this season and is tied for the highest net yards per pass attempt allowed in the league. Moore offers flex appeal in Week 9 in a favorable matchup, ranking as RotoBaller's WR31 in PPR formats.
