Who Should I Start? D.J. Moore or Drake London

Tuesday, December 24, 12:40 AM

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore continues to impress with his large target share, and he should remain a must-start fantasy option heading into Thursday Night Football against the Seattle Seahawks. Moore has been one of Caleb Williams' favorite targets, averaging 7.2 catches per game over the last six weeks. He has scored double-digit fantasy points (PPR) in each of those six games, ranking as the overall WR12 in fantasy football during that window. While he loses a significant amount of his touchdown opportunities to Keenan Allen, Moore has shown that he can sustain high-end WR2 production even if he's not finding the end zone on a routine basis. This week, Moore continues to rank as a fringe top-12 fantasy receiver against the Seahawks, who have allowed the fourth-most touchdowns and 12th-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2024.

According to Tori McElhaney of the Atlanta Falcons, wide receiver Drake London (hamstring) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice. However, the top wideout noted that he expects to be ready for Sunday night's tilt against the Washington Commanders. Fantasy managers should monitor his status on Friday in case he faces a setback, but they should plan on starting him this weekend. Last weekend, with rookie Michael Penix Jr. under center, London saw eight targets but could only bring in five of them for 59 yards before exiting early with this hamstring injury. Over his past six contests, London has seen 9.5 targets per game and averaged 71.0 yards per game. He should be considered a solid WR2 in all formats facing the Commanders, who have allowed the 15th-most PPR points to opposing wide receivers this season.
