Who Should I Start? Mike Williams or DJ Moore

Wednesday, March 12, 10:19 PM

The Los Angeles Chargers are signing free-agent wide receiver Mike Williams to a one-year deal worth up to $6 million on Wednesday night, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Williams spent the first seven years of his career in L.A. and will now reunite with quarterback Justin Herbert as a big, physical downfield threat. The 30-year-old veteran never developed into the consistent pass-catcher they hoped he'd be when they took him seventh overall in 2017 out of Clemson, although he did have a 10-touchdown season in 2018 and reached the 1,000-yard mark twice. In his first year away from the Chargers in 2024, he spent time with the New York Jets and Pittsburgh Steelers and failed to make an impact, catching a combined 21 passes on 34 targets for 298 yards and just one score in 18 games (five starts). Due to familiarity and opportunity, Big Mike should be able to bounce back as a starter with the Bolts, but consistency could be a real issue.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore caught nine passes for 86 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 18 win over the Green Bay Packers. His score came on a big 32-yard pass from quarterback Caleb Williams. The 27-year-old finished his second season in Chicago with 98 catches, 966 yards, and six touchdowns, ranking as a high-end WR2 in fantasy football. Moore was the best wide receiver in the Windy City once again this season, out-producing both Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze. He continues to trend upward, especially if the Bears decide to make improvements to their offensive coaching staff this upcoming offseason. The Maryland product will remain a high-end WR2 heading into 2025 fantasy drafts.
