No, that's where guys with polish OR elite tools should be taken. Guys with both should be taken in the first.
Guys with neither are 3rd rounders or later.

I'm not saying you're trying to compare the two here, but there is no comparison to be had between Hardman and Moore's rookie years. That ship has sailed.

We didn't. Sorry i shoulda clarified, they're saying those things about Toney and we never heard a peep like that about Moore.

Maybe a little bit.
And I get it. I had Sam Williams in about every mock I ran this last offseason. I just think we need to be patient and see how things play out more than a couple months on the debate between Pickens snd Skyy because (at least in my eyes) it’s not as clear cut as DK/Hardman. |

Guys with elite level combine timing for short area stuff this offense requires? Guys that break tackles like crazy and have RB skills? Those kinds of guys? |

Both sides are technically correct.
Moore hasn't met expectations. It's way too early to declare anything about him. Both can be, and are, true. |

Now that doesn't mean Skyy CAN'T develop, but in terms of their development, Pickens and so forth are further ahead, therefore their outlook is going to be greater. The Steelers will be going into next season building upon what Pickens has already done. They know what they have at the very least. That's the benefit of a player producing in his 1st year. The Chiefs will be going into next season and we still won't have any idea if Moore is going to see the field much or not. So no, the fact that he can't get on the field is ALREADY a loss when trying to compare him to others in his class.

He had a great 10 yard split. Meanwhile his 3-come time was ass and his shuttle only nominally better. Y'all spent so much time convincing yourselves of things that simply weren't true and now you're left undercutting your own argument. The fact that he was a small school kid is the ONLY reason he was dusting DBs on quick hitters and breaking tackles. Suddenly quality of competition is an excuse for him when it wasn't being considered by many of you at ALL when he was being touted pre-draft. Hell, you're ignoring it even now when it suits your purposes.

In his second and third year in college, he ran super precise routes in a simple offense. This offense at this level requires far more precise ability to not only run routes, but to change your route, cut it more shallow, adjust the flex to go more upfield, etc. Stuff Skyy never saw in college. He’s out there thinking a lot and not playing fast or crisp…but I think that will come in time. I’ll never understand them putting so much on his plate early on by being the primary punt returner and learning every WR position snd all the nuances that come with it. I’m just glad they pulled the plug on that so the kid can focus |

I think we are both arguing from a place of confirmation bias.
If Skyy finishes this year strong and gives us a solid slot option the next 3 years, a mid 2 is a perfect utilization of resources and will earn a sizable second contract. |
