Who Should I Start? River Cracraft or DJ Moore

Thursday, August 14, 9:10 PM

The Washington Commanders have signed wide receiver River Cracraft, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. Cracraft has played for three different teams across seven NFL seasons entering 2025, but has never recorded more than nine catches in a single year. He played eight games for the Miami Dolphins in 2024 and caught seven passes for 66 yards and zero touchdowns. The 30-year-old Cracraft is a long shot to make the Commanders' 53-man roster. Still, it's somewhat notable that the team is looking to fortify its wide receiver depth amidst its ongoing contract dispute with star wideout Terry McLaurin.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore had the least productive season of his NFL career in 2025, recording 50 receptions for 683 yards and six touchdowns on 85 targets across 17 games played. On the bright side, Moore remains an NFL ironman, as he has played all 17 games in five consecutive seasons and has missed just two contests across his eight-year career. Moore also finished the 2025 season strong, hauling in 11 catches for 116 yards and two touchdowns on 15 targets in Chicago's two postseason games. However, Moore could be seeing some age-related decline as he enters his age-29 season, and the Bears have a strong collection of young pass-catchers coming up behind him in wide receivers Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III, as well as tight end Colston Loveland. Moore has a significant chunk of money remaining on his current contract with Chicago, so he appears likely to be with the Bears in 2026. While Moore should still play an important role in the team's passing game, his days as a lead NFL wideout and a consistent fantasy producer may be behind him.
