DJ Moore

"Plenty of targets in CHI, but still the No. 1"

"

Moore played a different role in Shane Waldron's offense than he has at other stops in his career. I was told by people with viable insight into the machinations of last year's scheme that Moore's route running was unpredictable. This may have been due to playing "out of position" or the vagueness of the scheme install that also led to issues for Caleb Williams.  

Moore was more productive once Thomas Brown performed triage on the offense. This year, expect Moore to operate in Ben Johnson's offense as a flanker -- his best-suited role -- rather than a split end. 

Also, consider the potential of Moore getting traded. He complained publicly to the media and that's a no-no. If Moore  stays in Chicago, there's good reason to believe he, Burden, and Rome Odunze will have similar production. Look for Burden to have vertical shots and red-zone touches and Odunze experience more volatile production as the deep threat. 

"Yes, there are some rumblings of discontent, but Moore is the best receiver in Chicago and is a nice fit for the Amon-Ra St. Brown role in Ben Johnson's offense. Moore should see a ton of targets and won't cost you a high pick in your draft."
