DJ Moore Week 5 Outlook - Bears at Raiders

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Tue, Oct 1st 2019, 8:48am EDT

It hasn't been great under Kyle Allen, as Moore has totaled just seven targets that have amounted to four catches, 96 yards, and a touchdown. It could be worse, but those targets are not going to be enough to sustain consistent production. It's quite the departure from the 24 targets he saw in two games with Cam Newton. Against the Jaguars, he's likely to see Jalen Ramsey, provided he suits up for this game. The butterfly effect of Ramsey in the secondary is massive, though A.J. Bouye is no slouch himself. Bouye has still yet to allow a touchdown in his coverage this year, while Ramsey and his replacement, Tre Herndon, have allowed four of them on 40 targets. Knowing Moore's been getting less targets with Allen, it's a fair question on whether or not you should bench him in this game. If Ramsey plays, you should consider Moore just a low-end WR3/high-end WR4.
