Who Should I Start? Elijah Moore or Dyami Brown

Saturday, August 23, 11:58 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Elijah Moore earned four targets from quarterback Shane Buechele in a 23-19 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday, but he was unable to do much with them. While Moore did haul in three passes, he totaled just eight yards and will wrap up his preseason with four catches (eight targets) for 13 yards. The former New York Jet and Cleveland Brown joined the Bills on a one-year deal in free agency and is expected to earn a roster spot, but he isn't necessarily a stone-cold lock. Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Joshua Palmer are the only Buffalo receivers who are guaranteed to make the team, leaving Moore grouped with several others (Curtis Samuel, Tyrell Shavers, Kristian Wilkerson, Laviska Shenault Jr., and KJ Hamler among them) fighting for two or three jobs. Except for Samuel (illness), who's also reportedly on the bubble and didn't play Saturday because of an illness, Moore has a more proven track record than the rest of the WRs competing for roles. That could help give him the edge in the competition.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dyami Brown cleared the league's concussion protocol and was given the green light to play in the Week 10 loss to the Houston Texans. Brown had an opportunity for more involvement in the passing game with rookie first-rounder Travis Hunter (knee) on Injured Reserve and Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) inactive, but he ended up playing just 37% of the offensive snaps while failing to catch his only target. Newcomer Jakobi Meyers led the Jags with 41 receiving yards on three catches, and Parker Washington scored through the air and on special teams. Brown has only 19 catches on 35 targets for 219 yards and one touchdown in eight games in his first year in Duval, but he makes more sense as a waiver addition in deeper leagues now that Hunter will miss the rest of the season. The 26-year-old will still be a boom/bust dart throw, though, and his short-term fantasy value will depend on whether Thomas misses more time with his ankle injury.
