2.01 WR Rondale Moore, AZ

[Royal Hawaiian Opihi]

Some may call him simply a gadget player (and special teams aficionado).
Could be.
Some may say he hasn't been the same since his freshman year at Purdue, with injuries derailing his star-studded potential.
True.
Some wonder if his "injury prone" label will stick with him in the NFL.
I hear that.
But those "some ones" aren't me.

Love this kid's work ethic.
Love his open space playmaking abilities.
Sure, the Cardinal's WR corp is a crowded room right now... but Moore will be playing (mostly) out of the slot, and could win the WR3 role as a rookie.
Even if he doesn't, we believe his talent level is too good to pass on at this point in the draft.
Not going to make the Tyreek Hill comparison. He's going to have to prove it before that comes into the mix.
But I like Rondale's attitude... the chip on his shoulder for NOT being selected in the first round... and his willingness to do whatever necessary to continue to succeed in the sport he's loved since a kid.
(Especially in a Kingsbury offense that loves to get the ball out quick!)

Welcome to the OPIHI, Rondale. Take all the time you need on our TS. We'll be there when you're ready to move into the active roster.

Love the pick, If he can translate his big-play ability into consistent points week in and week out he could be a FF stud. The biggest negative with him IMO is that there is serious talent around him which could limit targets and his overall role in the offense. Worth the risk though. I would have taken him had you accepted my offer!
