Official 2018 4th round pick: J'mon Moore WR

[Poppa San]

pick 133. long wait

 

[gonzozab]

Mayock had a very tepid analysis of him, and 4.6 speed? Meh.

 

[Arod2gjdd]

Not sure how you pass on St. Brown

 

[ExpatPacker]

He ran a 4.48 on his pro day.

He's a late 4th rounder...and his movement skills are excellent. Just watch his tape and highlights, he looks much faster on the field.

 

[Jerellh528]

Like this dude a lot! I’m pleased. Watch him play, there’s a lot to like!

 

[Titletown01]

Not sure about this one. Would have taken Crosby there personally or a higher upside WR. Shame Sweat wasn’t there.

He could be next. Any second now....

Sweat had a bad ACL as a HS senior and was playing last year with a knee brace. There's medical risk there, and that's why he fell.

 

[Patriotplayer90]

I like the player a lot. Very good quickness and separation ability, and very competitive.

Moore's issue isn't speed. He ran a sub 4.5 forty at his pro day. He has size. His issue is drops. Get that figured out and he has a ton of value at the end of the 4th

Yep. I’m a die hard college football fan and my school plays FSU every year so got to see him a lot. He was never dominant and the risk is there. I’m just slightly worried we have not addressed the edge at all yet.

 

[bigboypasses]

I don't see how you pass on st. Brown. Brown is much bigger and faster. Doesn't make sense.

 

[hallzi43]

Looks like a good value pick. He should push for the starting job.

The Packers hosted visits with both Moore and Brown. Evidently Moore made a better impression.

Who runs routes better? Who can learn a playbook better? Don't know the answers but I know there is way more to being a good wr than size and speed. And Moore's pro day 40 matched what Brown did at the combine. And both are plenty tall enough

Interesting. You know a guy who runs good routes and knows the playbook is key to Rodgers. I wonder what they do in those visits

 

[Sanguine camper]

If he doesn't fix the drops he'll be in MM's doghouse and be benched. When James Jones had problems with dropping passes he worked until he got much better. No reason Moore can't improve his catching ability. I'm still very puzzled with this pick since the Packers are in dire need of elite speed at the position.

No workouts or on-field drills are permitted. It's interviews and perhaps putting them in front of a grease board breaking down alignments. I'm sure a critical part of it is getting an assessment of personality. Goofballs and knuckleheads need not apply.

Again 4.48 at his pro day. Plenty fast enough.

 

[HardRightEdge]

A note on Brown: he was not a full participant at the Combine because of a knee issue. He did not try to run the cone or the shuttle at the Combine or Pro Day. There may be a concern there.

 

[bigboypasses]

I think Brown is worth trading up for. Very rarely do you find a 6 ft 5 receiver that runs a for 4.4 40. Or maybe they are hoping Cain Falls.

Cain is still on the board?! Holy crap I hope we snatch him up

Me too. Think this offensive staff and playing with AR would be a great fit.

 

[bigboypasses]

Has to be something wrong with Cain. I've seen him quite a bit and he is certainly a 3rd round Talent. There have been tons of wide receivers picked before him which makes me think that people are weary of something.
