Who Should I Start? Josh Allen or Tua Tagovailoa

Tuesday, May 6, 8:14 PM

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.

The Palm Beach Post's Joe Schad writes that it appears Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is embracing the challenge to take complete command and become more of a leader in the same offense and under the same head coach for a fourth consecutive season. "(Tua) had the most ownership of all the players on each and every down," head coach Mike McDaniel said during the second week of organized team activities. The former first-rounder came into the league with a propensity to defer to older players, but that's not the case now as he heads into Year 6 in the NFL. "Tua in Year 6, he's definitely a lot more confident and decisive on and off the field," tackle Austin Jackson said. The 27-year-old's 2024 season was derailed by concussion and hip injuries, and he could be one more concussion away from his career being over. But if Tagovailoa can stay healthy, he has the weapons to at least be in the low-end QB1 picture.
