Should You Start or Sit Elijah Moore in Week 17?
I was more in on Elijah Moore last week than most, and I can assure you that I will not make that mistake in consecutive games. My thought process was that the short-yardage target in a low-octane offense could see enough high-percentage targets to return reasonable PPR value.
As it turns out, this offense has no “high-percentage targets” with Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center. Moore has turned 11 targets into just 20 yards over the past two weeks and has found the end zone just twice in his past 24 games. There are many more paths to failure than success, and that’s not a math equation I’m comfortable backing.
