A fantasy draft is all about obtaining the most value with each selection. Value is available throughout a draft, and grabbing it is one of the most important keys to a successful fantasy team. To highlight this value, we asked our staff to review highly rated players who should still outperform their draft position.

DJ Moore, Buffalo Bills
Jason Wood: DJ Moore's current ADP is a direct overcorrection to a frustrating 2025 season, in which he finished as the WR35 in Chicago. That decline was largely a byproduct of the Bears' offensive pivot toward other options, but the Buffalo Bills signaled exactly how they view him by making him their priority this offseason. They acquired him specifically to reclaim the alpha role he commanded for the majority of his career prior to last year.
One look at the Bills' depth chart confirms Moore will not have to contend for snaps or targets in his new home. While Khalil Shakir and Dalton Kincaid remain important pieces of the passing game, Moore is the undisputed primary wideout and a lock to become Josh Allen's favorite target.
The Buffalo offense has remained elite but has lacked a true go-to difference-maker since the departure of Stefon Diggs. Diggs famously averaged 160 targets per season with Allen. Moore does not even need to hit that volume to be a massive value. If healthy, he is a lock for at least 130 targets in this high-octane environment. No receiver receiving 130 or more targets from a quarterback of Allen's stature will finish outside the top 20. Moore is a high-end WR2 being priced at a WR3 floor.
Hutchinson Brown: DJ Moore mirrors D'Andre Swift's fantasy football trajectory. Both veterans are proven assets, each securing six top-24 positional finishes. However, outside of Moore's 2023 campaign, neither has cracked the top twelve.
Despite a lackluster 2025 season at age 28, Moore's perceived decline is likely premature. His time with Chicago ended on a sour note, suggesting he simply needed a fresh start. He finds exactly that in Buffalo, where he steps into the undisputed WR1 role. He also transitions from subpar quarterbacks to Josh Allen, arguably the best arm talent in the NFL. If Moore produced top-20 numbers with bottom-tier passing, his ceiling with an elite passer is immense.
Last season, Swift was drafted around RB27, a mark he had beaten every year, and finished as RB15 playing for arguably the best offense he's ever played for. I invested heavily in Swift last year, which worked out well, and I'm going to do the same with DJ Moore, who is WR27 in ADP. Having outperformed that ADP in 75% of his professional seasons, Moore is now entering the most favorable situation of his career. At his current cost, he represents one of the best values in fantasy football.
Dave Kluge: It's easy to understand why DJ Moore is falling in fantasy drafts. He's entering his age-29 season, and his production has dipped every year since 2023. But sometimes you've got to look beyond the numbers.
Moore was a solid receiver his entire Carolina tenure. In 2023, he was traded to Chicago and had a career year with Justin Fields, benefiting from a loose style of play in a broken offense. Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson play a very different style of ball, surgical and detail-oriented. Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, and Colston Loveland all fit roles in that offense, and Moore didn't. A trade to Buffalo reunites Moore with Joe Brady, with whom he has familiarity as Carolina's former offensive coordinator. Stefon Diggs aided Josh Allen in having his best seasons, and his target depth has slowly dipped in each year since Diggs' departure.
Moore doesn't hide his emotions and had his best year after being traded to Chicago, playing with a noticeable chip on his shoulder. He could bring that energy to Buffalo and help ascend the entire offense. Moore is regularly falling into the WR3 range in fantasy drafts and has true top-ten upside in this offense.
Matt Waldman: Moore has earned well-deserved criticism for his routes, specifically when making ill-advised adjustments to his patterns in pivotal game situations with the Bears for the past two seasons. Moore developed his game in offenses with Cam Newton and Justin Fields, two quarterbacks who did a lot of off-script work in schemes with looser protocols than Ben Johnson's.
Josh Allen is this era's Newton. While the Bills have created an offense to limit Allen's Ricky Bobby freewheeling, they also still lean on it in pivotal moments.
Moore's history of poor adjustment will recur in Buffalo, but the relaxed protocols should also make him a better fit with Allen and the Bills. Banking on Moore to deliver mid-range WR2 value versus low-end WR3 ADP makes him a value.
Bob Harris: DJ Moore saw his role reduced in Chicago's offense in 2025. Though he started all 17 games, he finished with career lows in receptions (50) and yards (682).
But Moore was acquired by the Bills in a trade before the start of free agency. How has he responded to trades in the past?
Moore was last traded in 2023, as part of a deal that sent the Bears' No. 1 overall pick to the Panthers. He finished his first season in Chicago with 96 catches for 1,364 yards with eight touchdowns. He followed that with 98 receptions for 966 yards with six touchdowns in 2024.
In Buffalo, Moore will reunite with Joe Brady, who served as Moore's offensive coordinator in Carolina from 2020 to 2021. In his first season under Brady, Moore had 1,193 receiving yards and a career-high 18.1 yards per catch.
With Moore, the Bills will now have a top-caliber receiving weapon for quarterback Josh Allen -- a role the team has not had over the last couple of seasons.
Last year, Khalil Shakir led the club with 72 receptions and 719 yards receiving. Expecting Moore to exceed those numbers is very reasonable.
