If we land Moore or Miller in the 2nd/3rd I'll be ecstatic. Need some explosion/separators at wr and they're the best in the draft at that outside of Ridley (who would be my choice in the 1st with maybe a slight trade back)

s**t. I forgot about Kirk lol. I've avtuallt been watching him since he was in Hs. Has Percy harvin like ability. Would love him as well.

But i want Moore the most. His strength is something i really covet in a wideout.

D.J. Moore, WR, Maryland D.J. Moore won't turn 21 until April, and his combination of youth, athleticism, and traits makes him an enticing WR prospect in a year that seems to lack top talent at the position. Coming out of Maryland, Moore has drawn a few comparisons to fellow Terrapin Stefon Diggs. I'm not sure I'm all the way on board with that comparison, but Moore has the potential to bring a similar return on investment Diggs has for the Vikings.

Strengths Despite being listed at just 5'10", Moore wins in the air with the ability of someone much larger than he is. He has an excellent vertical and times his jumps excellently to catch the ball at its high point. He gets his hands away from his body when he catches, and he has a "wow" play or two seemingly every game. He's both quick and fast, and if he were only used as a gadget player (which would be wasting his talent) he would still find success in the league. He's young and flashes enough raw talent that the right coach could mold him into a monster in a couple years, and his skillset is diverse enough to fit any scheme.

Weaknesses: At Maryland, Moore didn't run a particularly diverse route tree. The vast majority of his routes were screens/go's/crossers, and occasionally had some curls mixed in. He showed capability of running other routes when asked to, which leads me to believe it was Maryland asking him to do this more than a limitation on his part, but his route running needs to be cleaned up either way. He wins with athleticism more than technique, so his NFL team will want to both expand his tree and tighten up his technique. Although he catches away from his body, he does have some frustrating drops mixed in. His hands aren't a detriment, but they need some work. Height shouldn't be held against him, but 5'10" is worth noting. These last two weaknesses are more nitpicks than anything, but they should be kept in mind.

Fit I Love The San Francisco 49ers. Assuming Jimmy Garoppolo stays, the thought of Kyle Shanahan using Moore as Garoppolo's main weapon to grow with is gorgeous. Shanahan has gotten the most out of raw receivers before (see: Taylor Gabriel 2016), and Moore's diverse skillset fits perfectly with Shanahan's genius offensive mind.
