Strengths

Moore is a versatile weapon, that could help in a variety of roles in the NFL. Moore has excellent speed, and is tough to catch in the open field. He has the quickness to make defenders miss, and accelerates quickly to top speed once he hits a seam. Moore also shows good hands as a receiver, and could be a threat out of the backfield. His breakaway ability as a rusher and receiver means you cannot take your eye off him whenever he is on the field. Moore has also shown his big play ability as a return man, giving him three ways to help his football team put points on the board.

Weaknesses

Moore has a small frame for a wide receiver, let alone a running back. His small frame and lack of power will prevent him from being anything more than a situational running back. With some development, he could possibly even be moved to wide receiver because he may not be able to run between the tackles much.

Future

Devin Moore is a legitimate home run threat, and has the speed and quickness to allow that ability to translate to the NFL level. He must show the toughness and work ethic to improve his skills as a rusher, receiver, and returner because his value in the league revolves around his versatility. Moore was a combine snub, but he made up for it at his pro day by running two sub 4.4 40 times.
