Chris Moore - WR TEN (1 Viewer)

Searched for a topic on this dude. Found none.

Anyone starting him against the Chiefs this week? Last week 11 targets, 10 receptions for 124 yards
 
What do you think of him if Cooks plays this week? Last week Houston only threw a total of 27 passes. If Cooks is out there I don't see Moore being targeted nearly as much.

I’m only playing Moore if Cooks and Collins are out. Moore has been great when they both were absent, I don’t trust him if one of the aforementioned plays.
 
I might start Chris Moore over Mike Evans or Jamaal Williams. Moore is the only remaining Houston weapon and 12-15 targets wouldn't surprise me in a game they're playing from behind in from start to finish. I need a ceiling play after Kelce beat me up last night.

Kelce plays for the Seahawks or 49ers?
:oldunsure:
 
Man I may need to play Chris Moore over Higgins.
I would not recommend that.

I’ve seen a lot of crazy talk about benching Higgins. He’s a top 15 WR, and practice in full, an upgrade from limited yesterday.

Surely you have someone else who makes more sense to bench.
 
He has value after last week but 7th year, 29 year old vets are not something I am comfortable banking on in the playoffs.

Before anyone says anything, Jeffers & Bennett were both 4th year, 26 year olds when they went bonkers.

Anyone want to provide data on 6th-7th year, 28-29 year olds who went nuts please do. I am always looking for data to support calls in the WDIS thread.

It's understandable you missed the part where I said:
He has value after last week
After all it was only the first sentence.

But, again, show me the 29 year old 7thh year vet who did it the following week. DeMarcus Robinson was decent earlier this year but was he a lock start? Not even close.

Moore is in the conversation as an end of bench flex option who, maybe, possibly has the opportunity to surprise us all.

He also has the opportunity to disappoint all the people who didn't start a safer/smarter option.
 
Moore looks like he could be a valuable add for this week, even of only to block him from your opponent.

Would you start him over Waddle vs. Buffalo in bad weather (and he's clearly been hurt for the past few weeks) or Cooper vs. Baltimore (also dinged up recently)?

Lol. Meant Kittle. His 25.30 points confused me and made me feel like it was Kelce burying me in my playoff match.

I was making jokey jokes. Sorry buddy - didn’t mean to offend.
 
As far as this week goes, Moore is in a great spot with a great matchup, with both Collins and Cooks out and another heavy passing game script similar to last week expected. Currently have him ranked as WR12 going into this week's games (for this week only).

Irving Fryar is the best example that I can provide data for that criteria. You could argue that his ‘breakout‘ didn’t occur until his 7th or 8th seasons at age 28 or age 29. He had some good years for fantasy football purposes from age 32 to age 35.

I agree that you don’t want to bank on outliers like this in dynasty & keeper leagues - basically hoping that Chris Moore is magically going to replicate an Irving Fryar late career resurrection; however, for week 15 waiver wire options - there is a decent chance that midnight hasn’t arrived yet - turning Chris Moore back into a pumpkin.

This season, Chris Moore has played two games with both Brandin Cooks and Nico Collins out

Week 9 vs PHI and Week 14 @ DAL

His opportunity share/production…

Week 9
🔘 4-43-1 on five 🎯
🔘 24% 🎯 share
🔘 26% 🎯 rate

Week 14
🔘 10-124-0 on 11 🎯
🔘 46% 🎯 share
🔘 46% 🎯 rate

Adam Koffler @AdamKoffler
Of total wide receiver fantasy points allowed, the Kansas City Chiefs allow the fourth-highest percentage to slot receivers at 36%

Chris Moore has run 66.4% of his routes out of the slot this season

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a perfect storm for another eruption spot for CM
 
I need 2 of Moore, Evans, Jeudy, and Wilson with Lockett already in the books....I'll be pulling my hair out til gametime....:oldunsure:

FF players have plenty of stories of guys that put up 3 or 4 weeks of production to win them a title - guys that never did anything before or since that run. I don't think anybody is thinking Chris Moore is a long term solution, or even a week 16 solution even if he does well this week. But when a team loses its top two WR, it's quite logical to look at WR3 (no matter who he is) and wonder if he can step up. Plus we do have an actual game to look at where he did.

Moore was third in the pecking order for a reason - nobody thinks he's better than Cooks or Collins. If only one of them were playing this week I'd still give Moore a look, but with less optimism than when both are out.

There's plenty of skill in FF analysis, but there's also luck. Maybe the Cowboys just took the Texans too lightly and didn't prepare for Moore. Maybe the Chiefs will decide based on last week to double cover Moore on every snap - tell the Texans we'll make you beat us with somebody else. Maybe the Chiefs go up by 40 at half time and sit their starting secondary and Moore goes wild in the second half for 10-200 or he just vacuums up targets getting 15-75 and the Texans get shut out.

So he has a chance to be really good or really bad. How is that different from any other wr3/flex?

He's not, that's why I said he is a flex consideration.
 
Tempting but feels like a letdown trap. He had quite a few manufactured short passes that the Chiefs will be keeping an eye on now. However someone needs to be targeted so you could do worse, I just would not anticipate the same output as last week if I were a betting man.

Feels to me like a dart throw who can expect a lot of targets. It's a nice dart throw.

Patterson last year? Not during the playoffs, but had a nice run in the middle of the season.

I like that one a lot!

To be clear, I am not saying he is going to suck just not sure where to slot a guy with his pedigree.

For example in the WDIS thread someone is asking

Amari, Waddle, Chark or Moore. My response, though more detailed than this was:

Amari>Waddle>Moore>Chark

Amari & Waddle may be flex plays for some teams and there is simply no way I can start Moore over either of those guys. With the caveat that if there are 20-30mph wind gusts in Buffalo then I might risk benching Waddle.

Moore v Chark is a closer call but I like Moore simply because of the matchup and where each lies in the pecking order of targets ATM.
 

Chris Moore caught 4-of-9 targets for 42 yards in Houston's Week 15 loss to Kansas City.​

He led wideouts in targets by quite a bit, but received only a single target in the red zone as Davis Mills continues to split more towards targeting his tight ends. That target was from Jeff Driskel and netted negative yardage. The Texans offense is always prone to being the Texans offense, but if Brandin Cooks and Nico Collins continue to be held out, Moore will continue to deliver in volume if nothing else.

I guessed 5/60

I was close!
 
@Hot Sauce Guy - I’m requesting a thread title update on this one

Titans signed WR Chris Moore, formerly of the Texans.​

Moore spent the past two years in Houston. He played a mix of offense and special teams in 2021 but injuries ahead of him on the depth chart landed Moore a starting role for nearly half of the 2022 season. Moore road the wave of extra targets to a 48/548/2 receiving line. He set career highs in catches and yards. With how thin the Titans' receiving room is, Moore could stumble into a meaningful role in Tennessee. He's not on the fantasy radar yet but is a name to watch out for in training camp.
