Well he didn't fumble. That's an improvement.

Should have him play nickle all year. Instead of forcing him into safety.

It's amazing how well young players play when active and allowed to play at their natural positions.
Jullian Taylor, D.J. Jones, Solomon Thomas, Marcell Harris, Elijah Lee, etc.

You know I've been saying this for a while lol...I feel like even Moore could have a better shot getting on the field as a FS. Kid was damn could as a single-high in college. Has everything you want to play that position. Speed, length, size, range, ball skills and can hit.

Yeah, you could see he's just so active from the slot in pre season. I thought he did enough to challenge Williams and this sort of confirms that.
I don't know as much about Moore as a single high FS but I'd take your word on it. How are his instincts?

I know right. We have been preaching this all year with Solomon Thomas & reed. What do you know coaches??? Playing a great college cb at his natural position. What a f**king concept

Hopefully this game opened some eyes and made them realize just because he can play safety doesn't mean they should play him there. This dudes a baller at corner. Sometimes you gotta let a peacock fly.

Heck of a game yesterday. This kid is showing everything Jimmie Ward was supposed to be. Was a huge fan when still him in Rd 5 and he has played real well when healthy. Has a bright future

Pretty darn good from what I saw in clips...scouts called him a true single high, just didn't play top competition and not a ton of film. Think he had 5 INTs in two seasons.
I'm fine with letting him develop as a boundary CB. He's got the skill set to be very good (unlike some of their other moves) and it's a much much more important position. I do think he's currently the team's best FS, which isn't saying much. I don't think right now he's one of the top 2 CBs.
We will see

Hmm one of our best corners Reed is playing FS while Moore plays corner. Sure Saleh
