DJ Moore News
Monday, June 29, 8:45 AM
The Buffalo Bills attempted to upgrade quarterback Josh Allen's receiving corps this offseason by acquiring wide receiver DJ Moore from the Chicago Bears, and NFL.com's Nick Shook suggests that Moore could be the missing link between the Bills and an AFC Championship appearance. "Just really getting to know him, we're locker mates, and to have that relationship that we already have, it's a pretty seamless fit. I'm excited to continue to get to work with him. He's going to be a huge help for us this next season and seasons to come," Allen said. The Bills have lacked an experienced, proven wideout since they traded Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans before the 2024 season. Moore will combine with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Tyrell Shavers, Joshua Palmer, and Gabe Davis in his new digs in 2026. The 29-year-old Moore had the worst season of his career in 2025, catching just 50 passes for 682 yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games. With less competition for targets in Buffalo, he should be in the mix for a bounce-back season in 2026. Fantasy managers should target him as a low-end WR2/high-end WR3/flex in upcoming drafts.

Luther Burden III News
Tuesday, July 14, 10:17 AM
Chicago Bears second-year wide receiver Luther Burden III is one of the most clear breakout candidates at his position in 2026, according to Dan Wiederer of The Athletic. "I'm buying Luther Burden stock right now," head coach Ben Johnson said back in May. Johnson called Burden's growth this offseason "electric." The 22-year-old former second-rounder (39th overall) out of the University of Missouri took off in the second half as a rookie, posting 40 catches, 547 yards and a touchdown in his final 10 games, including the postseason. Burden is carrying increased confidence, heightened trust from Johnson, and improved chemistry with quarterback Caleb Williams. "He's the truth, man. And nothing but the truth," tight end Colston Loveland said. Burden had a total line of 47 catches, 652 yards and two touchdowns in 15 regular-season games (five starts) as a rookie, but with DJ Moore now in Buffalo, Burden could easily become Chicago's WR1 over Rome Odunze in 2026. Fantasy managers should be looking to draft Burden as a strong WR2 this year with upside for more in a Bears offense that's looking to take the next step in Johnson's second season running the show.
