Fantasy Football Player Notes

In the last two weeks, DJ Moore has had back-to-back WR1 finishes in weekly scoring as the WR7 and WR8 for those weeks. Since Week 14, without Rome Odunze, Moore has had a 15.5% target share with 54 receiving yards per game, 1.78 yards per route run, and a 21.7% first-read share. In his last three games, Moore has had two red zone targets, five deep targets, and three scores. Moore should have another nice game this week. Since Week 12, San Francisco has allowed the 12th-most PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers.

Luther Burden will be back this week. In his two games played without Rome Odunze since Week 14, Burden has finished as the WR23 and WR25 in weekly scoring with a 20.6% target share, 75.5 receiving yards per game, 3.68 yards per route run, and a 29.4% first-read share. In those two games, Burden has had one red zone target and zero deep targets. Burden has a tough matchup, but he could overcome it this week if he continues to produce like that. Flexing Burden this week is a bet on talent, which is a sound bet to make for Week 17. Since Week 12, the 49ers have allowed the fifth-fewest PPR points per target and the eighth-fewest receiving yards per game to slot receivers.
