Denarious Moore or Earl Bennett (1 Viewer)

[RalphMouth]

both can be had towards the later end of drafts and both could end up being their team's #1 WRs-

you can only draft one... who would it be and why?

Upside, Moore.

I kind of like Bennett though, and think he has a shot 75+ catches.

Upside, Moore. I kind of like Bennett though, and think he has a shot 75+ catches.

Have to agree... Bennett looks poised to have a break out year.. he is the clear #1 there.. and Martz has said on multiple occasions that he is going to have a much bigger role in their offense...Pre-season backs up all the articles i have read... Bennett had the most targets and the most receptions of any Bears WR... not to mention the history he has with Jay Cutler when they were at Vanderbilt

no he is not.I have both of these guys and feel like they have as good a shot as anyone of breaking out. keeping my fingers crossed.

I don't think they are both available late anymore. I had a 12 team PPR draft last weekend with a bunch of FBGs, including a staffer, and Moore went in the 8th and I got Bennett in the 15th as my WR6. I think Bennett is available late, Moore not so much unless you are drafting with a lot of folks not really checking in on the pre-season chatter.

Just drafted tonight in a 12-man ppr league. I took Bennett at pick 11.06 and Moore at pick 14.07 (18 rounds). Pretty competitive league, so both guys can still be had pretty cheap. I was actually going to take Moore when I took Bennett, but I knew he'd have a better chance of hanging around for a few more rounds. And even though I like Moore, I think Bennett has the much better chance at 65+ recepts.

Yea he is... The Slot receiver in Martz offense is arguably the most important....and Martz still plans to use him outside.. the slot receiver in that offense is the go to guy on 3rd down passing plays... again also the guy Cutler trusts most, who has learned the offense better than anyone besides Cutler.. and Martz has gone on record multiple times saying "Earl Bennett will be getting the ball a lot more next season" “We didn’t throw it to him enough. That will be remedied. He will figure in a much larger role than he did last year. He came to us late. He was injured. I wasn’t really sure where he was with all the stuff. But he established himself as a guy who needs to get a lot more balls than he did. He’s extremely reliable. I know Jay feels comfortable with him in the slot doing some of those things,. But he should be able to play outside for us as well.”

That quote from Martz was from several months ago, I don't know that it's still applicable. I do like Bennett.

I don't think you can call him the clear #1 when as of right now he's not starting at WR-unless you mean that you're predicting that he will be the most productive. Personally I feel that neither of the Bears 2 best WRs are starting-hopefully that changes before week 1

I'm not sure that any quote from Martz should be taken at face value, having said that I'll take Bennett. More stable qb and situation in my opinion. I can see Moore having some big games, but I think Bennett will be much more reliable.
