PICK # 

Primary Needs: 

CB, LB, WR

PLAYER EVALUATION

We have compared Rondale Moore to Tyreek Hill, Steve Smith JR, Tyler Lockett, and Saquon Barkley. Moore defines speed in space, but he also defies logic at 5-9 180lbs; he reportedly can squat 600lbs, and it shows on the field. When he is not making a defender miss in a phone booth, he has the power to run through tackles. Moore can lineup all over the formation. He can flex out wide, in the slot, or the backfield. He is a good route runner. He is also a dynamic special teams player. The only knock is his health post-injury. It feels like forever since his incredible 2018 season, where he compiled 2000+ all-purpose yards. He did make his way back in 2020, and while he was not 100%, he showed once again why we believe he is worthy of being a first-round pick.

TEAM ANALYSIS

Other Considerations If Available:

Best Available CB or Best Available WR or Best Available WR

The Saints need to replace Drew Brees; they can do that with either Taysom Hill or Jameis Winston. The issue for the Saints will be their salary cap. They are way over the cap heading into 2021 (-84M), and they need to make some tough decisions. Based on the different directions that the Saints can go, we can only guess. They need WR's; they could use help in their secondary or at LB. It will be interesting to see how they manage their situation.
