Fantasy Tiers

Courtland Sutton: Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) WR (ranked #21 at the position). DJ Moore: Tier 5 (Deep League) WR (ranked #41 at the position). Among the top 50 wide receivers this season, Courtland Sutton is producing at 49% of elite pace and DJ Moore at 40%. That ranking gap means Courtland Sutton carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Courtland Sutton vs DJ Moore: The Full Breakdown

Deciding between Courtland Sutton and DJ Moore is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Denver Broncos wide receiver put up 10.7 PPG in 2025 over 17 games; DJ Moore of the Chicago Bears averaged 8.7 in 17. A 2.0-point margin that could shift on any given week.

The per-game difference of 2.0 points favors Courtland Sutton, 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.

Target volume is the story here. Courtland Sutton saw 124 targets in 2025, while DJ Moore drew 85. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Courtland Sutton, even in weeks where DJ Moore posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.

Both share a Week 10 bye, which matters for roster construction. If you are stacking wide receivers this deep on your bench, plan your replacement wide receiver early.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Courtland Sutton (age 30) is in the later years of production. Still a redraft asset, but dynasty value is declining. DJ Moore (age 29) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value.
