| Andrew Erickson FantasyPros | DJ Moore lands in Buffalo in arguably the best situation of his career after years of producing despite inconsistent quarterback play and shifting offensive environments. The veteran receiver reunites with Joe Brady, under whom he previously handled massive volume in Carolina, and now gets the benefit of catching passes from Josh Allen. Moore should immediately operate as one of Buffalo's primary receiving weapons, even if the Bills continue spreading targets around offensively. Given his long track record of WR2 production and the offensive upgrade surrounding him, Moore profiles as a strong value in 2026. | |
| Derek Brown FantasyPros | David Montgomery now finds himself as the Texans' do it all workhorse for 2026. Last year, he was phased out of the Lions' offensive plans as the season moved along, which led to his RB32 finish in fantasy points per game. In Weeks 12-18, he was the RB43 in fantasy points per game with a 32.1% snap rate, 8.2 touches per game, and only 42.8 total yards per game. Montgomery still has the juice to produce as a workhorse this season. Last season, he ranked 30th in missed tackle rate, but he was 12th in yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). His receiving chops are also still alive and well, as he was also 22nd in yards per route run and 12th in first downs per route run. Many will worry that Montgomery will split Houston's backfield workload with Woody Marks this season, but I don't see that happening. Montgomery should absorb a workload close to what Joe Mixon saw in 2024. In 2024, Mixon ranked fifth in opportunity share, 14th in snap share, and 13th in carries among running backs, finishing with 281 touches. Last season, Montgomery bested Marks in explosive run rate, missed tackle rate, rushing success rate, yards after contact per attempt, and yards per route run. Legit, every per-touch metric that I care about. Montgomery is the superior back, even at this stage of his career, and he'll be a strong volume-driven RB2 that could flirt with RB1 production. | D.J. Moore's stock took a tumble last year as Moore sank to WR41 in fantasy points per game. Moore has a new home for 2026 and beyond after being traded to Buffalo as Josh Allen's new WR1. Moore had a 14.3% target share with 1.33 yards per route run, a 17.5% first-read share, and 0.063 first downs per route run (per Fantasy Points Data). None of these numbers offer hope for 2026, but don't tune out just yet because I'm getting to the hope segment of this outlook. Buffalo hasn't had a dependable high-end target share earning receiving option since Stefon Diggs, and Joe Brady's previous experience with Moore has him and Buffalo believing that he can return to that form in 2026. Moore's deeper analytics agree with Brady. Last year, among 109 qualifying receivers, Moore was 47th and 49th in separation score and route win rate. The numbers get even better when we look at Moore as a perimeter receiver, which he'll be asked to do more than the 65% of the snaps that he played there last year. As an outside receiver last year, among the same sample of receivers, he was 36th in separation and 29th in route win rate. Moore looks like a nice bounceback candidate this season as a WR2/3 with upside for much more. |
