Alec Pierce vs DJ Moore: Who Should You Start?
Deciding between Alec Pierce and DJ Moore is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Indianapolis Colts wide receiver put up 10.7 PPG in 2025 over 15 games; DJ Moore of the Buffalo Bills averaged 8.5 in 17. A 2.2-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 2.2 points favors Alec Pierce, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one wide receiver to the other.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Alec Pierce turned 84 targets into 1003 yards and 6 touchdowns, while DJ Moore converted 85 looks into 682 yards and 6 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
One scheduling note: Alec Pierce is off Week 14 and DJ Moore Week 12. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
