Who Should I Start? Rondale Moore or Savion Williams

Friday, June 6, 3:31 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Rondale Moore (knee) has been participating in the team's voluntary organized team activities. Moore didn't play at all last year with the Atlanta Falcons after suffering a season-ending knee injury before the season started. The 24-year-old pass-catcher is now healthy and is trying to carve out a depth role in his first year with Minnesota behind Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and Jalen Nailor. The former second-round pick (49th overall) by the Arizona Cardinals in 2021 out of Purdue caught 135 passes on 182 targets for 1,201 yards and three touchdowns (one each year) in his first three years in the NFL in Arizona. Not only will Moore probably not be on the field all that much if Jefferson, Addison and Nailor stay healthy, but he could have lost notable speed after his serious knee injury. Moore is off the fantasy radar for now in most leagues.

The Athletic's Matt Schneidman isn't convinced that Green Bay Packers rookie third-round wide receiver Savion Williams will be a regular contributor in his first season in the NFL, but he writes that the Packers coaches are talking about him as if he will be. That's bad news for wideouts Bo Melton and Malik Heath making contributions this fall alongside Williams, rookie first-rounder Matthew Golden, Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks. Remember, Christian Watson (knee) is expected to miss at least half of the 2025 season. Williams is an athletic 6-foot-4, 222 pounds, but barring injuries on the receiver depth chart above him, he could very well be limited to a few offensive snaps per game and return duties on special teams. His usage will be something to watch in training camp and the preseason, but as of now, Williams is unlikely to be draft-worthy in single-year fantasy leagues.
