BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 51% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Fantasy managers should've been willing to give Skyy Moore another week after his Week 1 goose egg. That's because Travis Kelce missed Week 1 and he was a late addition to the injury report. This gave Andy Reid and the offense very little time to adjust their game plan.
The Chiefs do not have a clear No. 1 receiver on their roster and that includes Moore. That's what makes Kelce so important. Not surprisingly, even though Kelce didn't have his typical stat line, his sheer presence helped the entire flow and production of the offense. He finished Week 2 with four targets, which trailed Kadarius Toney and Justin Watson among the receivers.
However, Moore was the most productive receiver, finishing with three receptions, 70 yards, and a touchdown. On the downside, Moore saw his playing time decrease in Week 2. He played on just 58% of the team's snaps but ran the second-most routes (33) out of 45 dropbacks. His target share still leaves a ton to be desired.
Going into the season, fantasy managers were hoping for a second-year breakout. Even though there have only been two games played, a breakout season seems highly unlikely. At best, fantasy managers can expect a decent bench player who they can feel somewhat confident putting into their lineup during bye weeks and in the event that one of their starters gets hurt. That could make him worth picking up.
