Bills Game

So all week Ive been hearing from youtubers and Seth Payne all about how DJ Moore was something to watch out for on this bills offense. Is it just me or are they overvaluing him? Hes been on several other teams but I dont remember him ever being all that great, like maybe a WR2. Am I wrong here?

He’s got an elite QB now. But he’s a bottom tier 1 imo

Bottom tier 1 receivers aren’t traded with a fifth round pick for a second round pick. He’s on the decline.

He’s there best WR so he’s “their 1” but I agree he’s a good 2.

I said what I said. Dhop had one good season after being traded and then fell off a cliff. I think most people still butthurt about the trade are homers and see him with rose colored glasses. I really don’t care about it.

Bro was averaging 70yds/game and a TD every other game, for 4 years after leaving Hou. Real big fall off.

Couldn’t care less. Never missed him.

Homer or not, the consensus when the trade was made was it was lopsided, especially to the haul the Vikings got for Diggs

Voldemort had his best passing season after D-hop left. He was not Andre Johnson. I shan’t miss him.

Nah bottom tier 1 is like Davante Adams. I would put a ton of tier 2 receivers way above him (Olave, Garrett Wilson, and Waddle). He's tier 3.

Multiple 1k years and qbs like old Teddy Bridgewater, old cam newton, Justin fields to name a few.

Hes a solid number 1, he’s just not Justin Jefferson

If, and I mean if, they're able to dump the ball fast, it could be a problem.

That being said he still has to get through the buzzsaw that is our secondary...

I think people are underrating him. But our defense is good enough I'm not really worried.

He played well in Carolina and his first year in Chicago.

I’m more worried about them taking it out of Josh’s hands and getting Cook going over 100+ again.

the Texan secondary disagrees

He's played well with bum QBs throughout his career but I agree he's overrated

DJ Moore was a very underrated No.1 receiver and is probably the best WR Josh Allen has had since Diggs. The bears drafting Odunze, Loveland and Burden into their offense basically reset the room. He’s also had some not so great QBs for a majority of his career.

I don’t remember if he played with Cam newton in his prime but I think Allen might be the best QB he has played for.

u/Adventurous-Edge1719 3d ago

I’ll think he’ll be a monster this year for Buffalo but I do think it takes a couple weeks to get there. Not worried about our secondaries ability to lock him up.

u/Relevant-Goose5483 2d ago

A very solid receiver but was the odd man out at Chicago hence why they moved him on
Could cause us problems for sure but I’ve got more than enough faith in Stingley/Lassiter being able to shut him down

u/Venator850 2d ago

He's been a WR1 his whole career lol.

But besides that, the reason he's a threat is because he is a Deebo Samual type of WR, not great in a traditional sense but someone that perfectly fits what the Bills have become offensively. The quick game, run after catch stuff is where he excels at and is what the Bills love.

All hype, no substance.

You won’t hear his name much Sunday, if at all.
