Or two weeks if you're a legit talent, I guess.
Toney BLOWING past Moore on the depth chart and immediately making plays in this offense should go ahead and put the 'Andy Reid won't play young skill position players' myth to bed.
Moore simply hasn't forced the issue and made himself a part of the offense. In 2 weeks Toney damn sure has.
It wasn't ever Andy Reid - Moore simple isn't the talent so many of you claimed.

There's, what, 34 places between where Toney was picked and where Moore was. That's probably what we're seeing, the difference between an elite talent and a 2nd round one.
I agree that anyone thinking he'd immediately be a standalone WR1 was probably optimistic, and some of us maybe saw more in him than he's shown. But man, as a late 2nd pick I'm still hopeful.
He's obviously not going to be a difference maker this year, and next year we'll have to see how crowded the room is. But I think he can be better than you're expecting albeit worse than I was. I mean, we both thought Christian Watson was average and he looked pretty good the last game.
