- Ranked 2nd among charted prospects in success rate vs. man (75%) and press coverage (75.7%) - Led all prospects in success rate vs. zone coverage (88.1%) - He can play inside and outsidehttps://t.co/HbifB61JlJpic.twitter.com/HYsV8rlAzF
His hands are suppose to be his thing. "Big hands". People wouldn't :-) about his hand size. Me, a known "hater" of Moore ( I aint gonna lie, I was PISSED when we traded down and took him instead of just drafting Pickens), still expected him to be able to do his "thing" well.
And I still do.
Skyy will be counted on this season. He needs to put it together. [Reply]

If this guy is what this thread insists he is, he has to catch that ball. He needed to catch the other deeper shot he missed on the scramble drill as well.
Buuuuuut - he's undersized so the catch was harder than it needed to be because of it. And he's not gonna get any taller or more explosive. yesterday he looked every bit the small and athletically limited prospect he appeared to be last year. But MORE critically, his chemistry with Mahomes just really doesn't exist. Mahomes barely even looks at him in the route.
It's early. The performance itself isn't worth hitting a panic button over (I guess). But man, the complete lack of chemistry between those two after a couple of full camps and a full season of play is really alarming.
Ultimately the lack of chemistry is bigger issue than the drops. Even before the 2nd half when he was out there gacking anything thrown his way, Mahomes was simply not incorporating him into the progressions at all. Seemed to barely notice he was out there. By the time Toney had melted down and Mahomes had no real alternative, Moore just started dropping things. But before that was the REAL issue that suggests a long-term concern.
Mahomes doesn't look his way. At all.
I think this is fair re chemistry, and I say this as one of the Moore stans here. I still feel there are enough athletic traits for him to be a good player, and in all honesty I think Mahomes SHOULD look his way a little more. But it doesn't seem to be happening. [Reply]
Not that I'm the biggest fan of Moore, but it's Week 1 of his second season and he's already done for you guys? Seems like an exceptionally short leash. [Reply]

It was over his head and not sure if Watson coming across affected it but it barely hit his left hand. Really tough catch. Man Jet was wide open but that might have been a really tough throw.
Agree with you about the chemistry etc with Moore. I heard all these great things about his TC so I was more disappointed in him than Toney. [Reply]
