Who Should I Start? Elijah Moore or Jermaine Burton

Cleveland Browns free-agent wide receiver Elijah Moore signed with the Buffalo Bills on Wednesday on a one-year deal for $5 million maximum, sources tell NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Moore will head to the AFC East to give quarterback Josh Allen another weapon alongside wideouts Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, Curtis Samuel and rookie Kaden Prather. The 25-year-old former second-rounder (34th overall) by the New York Jets in 2021 out of Mississippi caught a career-high 61 passes on 102 targets for 538 yards and one touchdown in 17 games (13 starts) in 2024 in his second year with Cleveland. The 5-foot-10, 180-pounder could have a tough time standing out in fantasy yet again in a Buffalo offense that prided itself on spreading things around a season ago. Moore has never had more than 640 receiving yards or five touchdowns in a single season since debuting in the NFL in 2021.

Cincinnati Bengals second-year wide receiver Jermaine Burton, who is coming off a tumultuous rookie campaign that saw him suspended, evicted and left behind on a road trip, has slowly made an impression on quarterback Joe Burrow and head coach Zac Taylor, according to The Athletic's Paul Dehner Jr. Burrow has pointed out Burton's growth in "maturity" as he handles his business this spring. "All he can handle is the present at this point," Taylor said. "I think he's done a good job of that this offseason. He's been in the building. He's in the building outside of work hours, doing his own thing, prehabbing to get his body right. He has attacked practice the right way, and that is what you can control right now, so I appreciate that much." It's a step in the right direction for the 23-year-old former third-rounder, but Burton has a ways to go to get back in the team's good graces.
