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 rookie WR Luther Burden present at practice in full pads

Bears rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III is present for practice and in full pads.

Fantasy Impact:

Burden's got some time here to rev up to full speed, which makes this wide receiver room incredibly interesting. The rookie has been absent due to a hamstring issue, and now has the opportunity to push the veteran Zaccheaus for a role in 3WR sets. Burden is deep down our current WR rankings, but could begin the slow climb the more he gets integrated into the offense.

The Athletic: Bears WR Rome Odunze could break out

The Athletic

Jul 15 · 11:46 AM EDT

It’s cliché to choose the second-year, top-10 pick. But Rome Odunze’s rookie season seemed more disappointing than it actually was. He was fifth among rookies in receiving yards (734) and caught only 53.5 percent of passes thrown his way. However, Odunze served as an example of the inconsistency that plagued the 2024 Bears offense. — Kevin Fishbain

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say Odunze didn’t meet outside expectations, but it’s not because he was dropping passes or running poor routes. With a better scheme and improved quarterback play, he should take off in Year 2, according to Fishbain. Odunze will likely be a more popular pick this draft season.
