There are certainly guys I prefer over him like Pickens, but I don’t think he would be a terrible pick in the 1st, and he would be an excellent pick if he somehow fell to 50.
In the 1st?
Oh fuck he'd be an AWFUL pick in the 1st. I would lose my shit. I don't even want him in the 2nd. [Reply]

Fully disagree.
It would be a bit underwhelming, but not a terrible pick.
Again, we’re talking about a very young guy that is new to the position, yet just seems to be a natural at the position when it comes to things like route running and going up to get the football. [Reply]

Wait, you'd wanna pick him in the first round? [Reply]

As a 1st? It'd be a terrible pick. You're describing a 3rd round prospect.
There's really nothing elite about his game, and i was watching FBS db's run with him downfield and force him into contested catches. I don't believe he plays to 4.41 speed.
A 5-10" WR that can't run away from FBS's DB's. Not interested in the 1st 2 rounds. Not really interested at all tbh.
I can't really identify what it is that he's going to do well on the NFL level. [Reply]

Dude had 1,200 yards and 10 TDs. He led the FBS with 26 broken tackles. You’re talking like he wasn’t productive, when he was pretty dominant at that level.
I don’t think he’s a high upside guy, but he’s got a very high floor, and fits the offense.
I think he’s a Tyler Lockett caliber player, which is great on a rookie deal.
Again, I personally wouldn’t take him before 50 though. [Reply]

Personally not impressed by him at all
They are trying to bait some other team to take him before they pick
Why else would this come out?
9K chess going on [Reply]

Apparently a WR with the height of Danny DeVito and the weight of an average teenager is gonna be able to play outside.
I just don’t see Calvin Austin being an outside threat at the next level. He’s Mecole Hardman gadget/slot IMO [Reply]

Would really hate Moore in the 1st round.
A lot.
With the late second? Sure.
But man, I just don't see what some of y'all are seeing. I don't see a guy who's big enough to be the X we want long-term, quick enough to be a dynamic player in the slot or large enough to be a red-zone threat.
I see a really REALLY fungible player here with no real standout skills. He's...fine. He's a low ceiling, relatively high floor, depth WR on a good team. I just don't really understand what I'm missing with him.
But ultimately I think that horse has been beaten to death so I guess we just let it play out. [Reply]

Sounds like we're probably in each other's ballpark.
I think Lockett is what happens when this kind of player develops to the absolute peak of his ability. Locket is Moore's top 1% scenario. But it's not like there's a shortage of sub 6ft WRs who run a 4.4 and have okay agility scores.
So to put him on that sort of development arc is pretty damn aggressive. I don't think we can confidently say anything like that is going to happen. He's just as likely (in fact significantly more likely) to be Andy Isabella. Sure looks a LOT like Keke Coutee to me.
I just don't see the ceiling to justify that sort of capital. And ultimately I'd be shocked if he's my favorite guy at 50. Honestly, from your relatively tepid comments, I'd be surprised if that's the case for you as well.
You may be willing to 'consider' him at 50 - but dollars to donuts says that when that pick comes up there are at least 3 guys on the board you'll like more than him.
I just can't see it. I'd consider him a necessary evil at 62 and wouldn't consider him a real 'value' play until the back of the 3rd. And I'm guessing that's also how long it will take for me to look at my board and see him at the top of it. [Reply]
