Who Should I Start? Michael Thomas or D.J. Moore

Monday, September 25, 3:08 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas drew another nine targets in the Week 3 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Thomas has consistently drawn targets in the short field, catching six passes for 50 yards this week. Every week, he has had between eight and nine targets, five to seven receptions, and between 50-61 yards. Thomas has failed to find the end zone yet this season. He is a reliable flex option with a safe floor in PPR leagues, but has a limited ceiling.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore scored the lone touchdown for the team against the Chiefs. He was able to catch three of his six targets for 41 yards and a score. The score came when the game was already out of hand, so it ended up only helping fantasy managers who had Moore in their lineups. As long as Justin Fields continues to struggle in the passing game, Moore will continue to trend in the same direction. Week 4 does bring a matchup against a Denver team that just allowed 70 points, but the rest of the season doesn't get much easier.
