Who Should I Start? Josh Allen or C.J. Stroud

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Elijah Moore told the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle on Monday that the chance to play with quarterback Josh Allen swayed him to sign with the team in free agency. "For me, it's more like my whole career, I haven't really had too many great opportunities with a stable quarterback the entire season," said Buffalo's new wideout. The former second-round pick of the New York Jets isn't wrong, considering he's earned targets from a carousel of signal-callers at both of his stops in the pros. After a decent rookie season in 2021, Moore had a falling out with the Jets' coaching staff and was shipped to Cleveland the following year. His production has leveled off since then, but the 25-year-old believes his best is yet to come. Outside of teammate Khalil Shakir, the Bills did not have another pass-catcher accrue more than 45 receptions or 560 yards in 2024. Joshua Palmer is in the mix now, and Keon Coleman should improve in his second campaign. Still, Moore is likely to get a solid chance to vie for targets. He's an interesting low-risk investment for now.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud (shoulder) was throwing during mandatory minicamp on Tuesday as he continues to get over muscle tightness in his shoulder that he dealt with during voluntary organized team activities recently, according to KPRC 2 Houston's Aaron Wilson. It's not a surprise that Stroud is out there this week after head coach DeMeco Ryans said during OTAs that he wasn't really concerned with the QB's shoulder. The 23-year-old former first-rounder was the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2023 but took a step back in 2024, throwing for 3,727 yards, 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions while taking 52 sacks in 17 regular-season starts. A porous offensive line and knee injuries to Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell didn't help his cause as he finished as the QB18 in fantasy. Houston's offense line is going to have to be much better for Stroud to rebound in 2025.
