About this episode

Buffalo Bills Acquire DJ Moore: A Controversial Trade

The Buffalo Bills made a significant move in the 2026 NFL draft, trading their second-round pick and forty million dollars in guarantees to the Chicago Bears for wide receiver DJ Moore. Head coach Joe Brady, who coached Moore in 2020, sees him as a top target, and Moores former coach Ben Johnson praised his leadership. However, NFL executives are criticizing the deal, questioning why the Bills gave up so much for a player coming off two down years. Critics argue that Moores strength in short catches and yards after the catch duplicates what Khalil Shakir already provides, and they question why the Bills didnt pursue a deep threat like Jaylen Waddle. Bills GM Brandon Beane is focusing on winning now, betting that Moore will deliver big in the next couple of seasons.
