Week 12 at New Orleans Saints
Another game, another nice performance from D.J. Moore spoiled by the lack of a touchdown. Moore has double-digit targets in four of his last five games and is tied for eighth in the league with 62 receptions this season. He’s the primary target in the Carolina passing game and should continue to be heavily featured moving forward. At some point, the lack of touchdowns is bound to change.
This week, Moore has a tough matchup against the Saints, who rank third in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. However, with the likelihood that the Saints will keep the Panthers throwing the ball and his volume of targets over the last five games particularly, Moore has a high floor and should be considered a quality WR2 option, especially in PPR leagues. Start him.
