Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Jaylen Waddle

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore stole the show in Week 16's thrilling victory over the Green Bay Packers. Moore hauled in five of seven targets for 97 yards and the game-winning 46-yard touchdown. With both Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden III (ankle) inactive last week, Moore played his highest snap count of the season and set season highs in yards and targets. In the last two weeks, Moore has totaled 166 yards and three touchdowns in games where Odunze was out. He faces a 49ers defense that has allowed the 14th-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. With their secondary banged up entering Week 17, Moore has another opportunity to perform as the WR1 in the Bears offense.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has been the team's top option since Tyreek Hill's season-ending injury, and he'll be a solid second receiver in standard-sized leagues this week as his team hosts the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Waddle had five catches on nine targets for 72 yards in last week's loss to the Bengals, which was the first career start for rookie QB Quinn Ewers. Waddle led the team with those nine targets, with no other player getting more than five looks. Waddle didn't get into the end zone for a second straight week, but he has six touchdowns to go with his 910 receiving yards this season. He could get to 1,000 yards on Sunday if he has a big game against the Bucs, who rank in the middle of the league as a WR matchup. Waddle is the No. 17 WR in Week 17's RotoBaller rankings, landing him as a solid WR2 this week with a high floor due to this target volume.
