Welcome to the community!

I still prefer Mooney long term. He is getting on the same page as Fields and hopefully they can grow together.

Although Dillon has the skillset and upside, he is behind an RB that is signed long term and to a healthy contract. Dillon could still be a solid RB2 perhaps as Jones ages, but his path to a clear cut heavy workload back is cloudy.

I prefer Dillon...because RBs are harder to find/replace than WRs, and because I see Dillon's positional upside to be higher than Mooney's positional upside.

AJ Dillon easily. He's a beast, and gets worked into the offense. I am a fan of Mooney, and he was my favorite late round rookie sleeper last season, but moving on from him now since that Bears passing offense is so putrid, and don't see much upside coming.

Mooney - young WR in a vacant offense. His path to getting work is easier than Dillon's due to Aaron Jones still under contract for awhile.

Mooney has flashed enough to be optimistic about becoming a long term member of the offense with an open ceiling.

Dillon's ceiling is capped until Jones is gone. I'd rather cash in on Mooney's rise year over year than wait on Aaron Jones to get out of Dillon's way.

Dillon. Upside at a position that has less depth in the league. Shoot for the stars. Mooney is a nice little player, but you can find his type of production fairly easily at the WR position.
