Jordan Addison or D. J. Moore Week 16 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Fantasy football projections for WRs

The playoffs in fantasy football have Jordan Addison and D.J. Moore as two of the most important players in the finishing weeks. Owners who have those two players could be in for a tough decision, as they're projected to have incredibly close points in their matchups during Week 16.

Is Jordan Addison a good pick in Week 16?

There has been a bit of inconsistency for the Vikings wide receiver, but it's not on the negative side. He has had two games with over 100 receiving yards over the past four weeks, but those were the only times he did it throughout the season. His target share has noticeably improved, with 36 targets over the past four games.

Regularly speaking, Addison's production would merit WR2 consideration. However, the Seattle Seahawks' passing defense has improved considerably in the second half of the season, and they now have 11 interceptions and allow just 6.0 net yards per attempt. This is not a favorable matchup.

Is D. J. Moore a good pick in Week 16?

The problems with Moore's production are more related to the Bears' poor passing offense than the player as a whole. He remains a consistent target for Caleb Williams, with at least seven targets in all of the past five games. However, although he has consistent volume, his production isn't all that impressive: he surpassed the 60 receiving yards in just three of these games.

Hope is based on the matchup. The Lions' defense has been decimated by injuries, with Detroit losing Alim McNeill and Carlton Davis for the season in Week 15. They'll be without a lot of important players, and they have allowed 3,283 passing yards this season, the 8th-highest mark in the league

Whom should I start between Jordan Addison and D. J. Moore in Week 16?

Sportskeeda Start/Sit Optimizer

According to our Sportskeeda's Start/Sit Optimizer, the best wide receiver in Week 16 is Moore in an extremely close projection. He has a bigger chance of exploding to a great game due to the Lions' recent injuries.

However, there's no shame in starting any of these players, as they're both projected to get double-digit points for your team. In fantasy football playoffs, the margins are often small, and every advantage you can get could be useful.
