D.J. Moore Searching for Spark Against Ravens

Saturday, October 25, 11:40 AM

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.

Jaylen Waddle Leads Dolphins' Receiving Corps in Upset Victory

Monday, October 27, 12:59 AM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle caught five of his six targets for 99 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 8 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He led the way as Miami pulled off an improbable upset victory on the road. Waddle has now tallied at least 95 receiving yards in three of his last four games, and he has a touchdown in two of those four contests. As much as the Dolphins' offense has struggled this year, Waddle has been able to maintain fantasy relevance, especially after Tyreek Hill (knee) went down. He is now the overall WR13 in PPR leagues this season, and he should remain a fantasy-relevant receiver regardless of whether Miami has the lead or is playing from behind. He could feast again next week against the Baltimore Ravens, who just surrendered seven catches and 114 yards to Rome Odunze. Waddle remains a solid WR2 option heading into Week 9.
