"The Buffalo Bills have made a significant move to improve the offensive weaponry around Josh Allen, acquiring wide receiver D.J. Moore in a trade with the Chicago Bears. Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Bills are sending a second-round pick in the 2026 draft to the Bears in exchange for Moore and a fifth-round pick this year."
"Moore will not have such competition for targets in Buffalo, with the Bills' lack of dynamic options at wide receiver a well-documented problem in Western New York. Khalil Shakir was the Bills' leading receiver last season with 719 yards and four touchdowns. However, the Buffalo offense has been heavily reliant on the tight end position for passing-game production in recent seasons."
"Yet Moore was still an efficient receiver and averaged 13.6 yards per catch in 2025, with his disappointing production in overall yardage a product of the Bears having more mouths to feed offensively. Rookie tight end Colston Loveland was their leading receiver (713 yards), while Rome Odunze and rookie Luther Burden Jr. each had over 600 yards."
The Buffalo Bills acquired wide receiver D.J. Moore from the Chicago Bears in exchange for a 2026 second-round pick and a 2025 fifth-round pick. The Bills guaranteed $15.5 million of Moore's 2028 base salary, with his 2027 $23.5 million base salary becoming fully guaranteed when the new league year begins. Moore's 2026 salary of $23.5 million is already guaranteed. Despite being 29 when the 2026 season starts and coming off his least productive NFL season with 682 yards and six touchdowns in 2025, Moore remains an efficient receiver averaging 13.6 yards per catch. The Bills' lack of dynamic wide receiver options made this acquisition significant, as their leading receiver last season was Khalil Shakir with 719 yards.
