Bears WR D.J. Moore lining up in backfield

Pro Football Talk

Aug 12 · 9:16 AM EDT

D.J. Moore has been lining up in the backfield from time to time as the Bears try to find as many ways as possible to get the ball into the hands of one of their most dynamic players. On Monday, Moore said it has been “daunting” to learn a new position but added that it’s why he gets “paid the big bucks” so he’s going full speed in his embrace of the new twist to the offense.

Fantasy Impact:

Moore was quoted as saying he wants to, ‘‘Just do it all and just attack it.’’ It should be a great sign for his fantasy owners as any time an offense wants to find more ways to get a player touches is never a bad thing. In this case, it's a pretty crowded offense in terms of overall talent, but it looks like the Bears want to keep Moore involved.

Bears to sign TE Gerald Everett

Bears are giving former Chargers TE Gerald Everett a 2-year, $12 million base value deal with a max value up to $14 million that includes $6.1 million Fully Guaranteed.

Related Players: Cole Kmet

Fantasy Impact:

This signing absolutely muddies the water for Kmet's fantasy outlook, but is a great addition for their eventual rookie quarterback and the offense as a whole. With the influx of talent at the tight end position, there's no reason to target Everett or Kmet in typical 1TE redraft leagues this summer, though either one should remain on best ball radars.

Bears TE Cole Kmet and WR Darnell Mooney miss second straight practice

Bears practice report:

DNP: Darnell Mooney, Cole Kmet
Limited: Lucas Patrick
Full: Teven Jenkins, Noah Sewell, Equanimeous St. Brown

Related Players: D.J. Moore, Byron Pringle, Dante Pettis, Robert Tonyan

Fantasy Impact:

Justin Fields' legs yet again saved a mediocre passing game last week, and it looks like he may have to do without some of his best weapons yet again. D.J. Moore should be peppered with targets upon his return, which will make him a safe WR2 for Championship Week.

Bears agree to four-year $50M extension for TE Cole Kmet

Jul 26, 2023 · 2:15 PM EDT

Bears and TE Cole Kmet reached an agreement on a four-year, $50 million extension, including $32.8 million guaranteed and $20 million in new first-year cash.

Related Players: Robert Tonyan

Fantasy Impact:

Chicago locks in Kmet, who has become a favorite target of QB Justin Fields. This quells any consternation about veteran TE Tonyan taking a ton of snaps away from him in 2023, but that still doesn't make Kmet a reliable fantasy option, as he had three or fewer receptions in 10/17 games last season despite having a career year with a 50-544-7 line. Kmet was among the most "over-performing" touchdown scorer last season, and we're projecting him for much less this season. He will be a streaming option in plus matchups yet he is going off boards as an overpay at the TE10.
