He looks like Julian Edelman with better ball skills

Skyy Moore is SUBSTANTIALLY more likely to be out of the league before his rookie contract is over than he is to make the Hall. By a TON. My point isn’t that I think he’ll be DAT at all. And in fact have provided my projections for a very solid 6+ year career. I’m citing DAT because people are citing Antonio goddamn Brown and both are opposite sides of the same highly unlikely coin. And physically where do you get that Thomas was slower than Moore. No he wasn’t. At all. I mean Dexter McCluster was - you thinking about him? Thomas was faster, quicker and more agile than Moore is. Yes, he was lighter and and yes he was an unpolished gimmick player. And it’s still more likely that Moore ends up a flash in the pan gimmick who plays out his rookie contract and vanishes than it is that he goes to the Hall. It’s the absolutely insane hype people are hyping on this game (who will inevitably sing his praises at years end of he goes for 45 and 500) that I’m railing against here. |

DAT ran a 4.50 at the Combine. Last I checked, that's slower than 4.41.
If you want to reference a hand-timed pro day of 4.37 on a traditional "fast" track at Oregon, I'll say I don't give a ****. The insanely accurate electronic time at the combine doesn't lie. People said they hand-timed Moore in the low 4.3s too. Horseshit on both. What you're doing though is being unreasonable about potential. I mean, you're comparing the kid to a ****ing college RB. Find a better low-end comp than DAT that at least had similar collegiate production as a WR. It'd be a far more respectable rebuttal and one people can be honest about in their heads. I do agree though, probably unlikely he's near either. |
