Should You Start or Sit Elijah Moore in Week 18?
Moore is in the middle of about as bad a run as you’ll see from a receiver that had a window of fantasy relevance this season when the Jameis Winston experience was in full effect.
Moore’s production over the last three games:
- 99 routes
- 16 targets
- Five catches
- 21 yards
Some receivers are QB-proof, but it’s important to remember that the vast majority are not.
Moore is recent proof of this and he’s easy to avoid now, but don’t forget the lesson next season and why I always end up adding a player like Rashod Bateman over a Nick Westbrook-Ikhine type.
If I’m going to embrace variance at a high level, I’m going to look to limit the number of moving pieces where I can, and the QB is the logical place to start.
