As the Chicago Bears approach a crucial offseason, wide receiver DJ Moore has voiced strong support for quarterback Justin Fields. In an interview on FanDuel TV’s “Up & Adams” show, Moore expressed his desire for the Bears to stick with Fields and recommended trading back in the upcoming draft to acquire more offensive linemen and add depth at wide receiver.
Moore suggested that trading back a few spots and drafting a player like Marvin Harrison Jr. could be a beneficial strategy. Despite potentially competing for targets, Moore emphasized his openness to welcoming all playmakers, including those at his position.
The Bears acquired Moore last year by trading back from the No. 1 spot in the draft, obtaining additional first-round and second-round picks. Recent reports indicate that the team could secure even more assets by moving down in the draft again this year.
While Moore initially experienced some frustration with his role early in his first season with the Bears, he and Fields developed a strong connection, resulting in career highs for Moore in receptions, yards, and touchdowns. Given Fields’ potential and their successful collaboration, Moore is advocating for the team to build around the young quarterback rather than selecting consensus No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams.
