Who Should I Start? D.J. Moore or D.K. Metcalf

Sunday, September 17, 8:20 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore caught a team-high six passes for 104 yards in the team's disappointing loss to the Buccaneers 27-17. Moore made the most of his seven targets, including an impressive 32-yard reception on the first drive. The Bears offense is currently in shambles but it was nice to see Moore rise from the ashes to post a solid fantasy line. The path to Chicago's offensive success will need to run through the standout receiver moving forward and Moore will carry borderline WR2 value heading into next week against the Chiefs.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (ribs) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Metcalf took a hard shot to his ribs in the Week 2 overtime win over the Detroit Lions, and head coach Pete Carroll said earlier this week that the team would likely need to give him some time to recover this week. As long as the 25-year-old returns to practice in some form on Friday, he should at least attempt to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Carolina Panthers. Through two games this year, Metcalf has nine receptions on 11 targets for 122 yards and a touchdown, so as long as he's active, he needs to be in starting fantasy lineups. If Metcalf is limited or out this week, it will open up more looks for both Tyler Lockett and rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
