02Scheme fit
Ideal system

He's a versatile receiver whose playmaking ability can be maximized in a West Coast timing or spread RPO offense that prioritizes YAC opportunities.

Slot WRFlanker/Z-receiverReturn specialist
Best role

Immediate starter as a high-volume slot receiver with the potential to develop into a Pro Bowl-caliber offensive weapon capable of playing inside and out.

Wrong fit

A run-heavy, traditional pro-style offense that primarily features outside receivers running deep routes will not maximize his skill set.

Moore's ability to create after the catch and his versatility make him a valuable asset in modern pass-heavy schemes.

04The evaluation

Selected #24 overall in Round 1 of the 2018 NFL Draft by Carolina Panthers out of Maryland.
