Bargain Free Agent: WR Denarius Moore

Recommended Posts

"Moore provides a speed threat at receiver and a much-needed spark in the return game. At a fresh 26-years-old, Moore..provides good size (6-0, 200) and has untapped potential ... Moore has inconsistent hands at times but his speed and return ability make him an attractive buy-low option. Moore might be the definition of low-risk, high-reward.

Projected Contract: Two years, $3 million ($1 million guaranteed)"

Receiving Stats over last 5 yrs:

Tennessee (SEC)

age 22 (2010) - 981 yds, 9 TD - 20.9 yards/rec

Raiders

age 23 (2011) - 618 yds, 5 TD - 18.7 yards/rec (#3 in NFL)

age 24 (2012) - 741 yds, 7 TD - 14.5 yards/rec

age 25 (2013) - 695 yds, 5 TD - 15.1 yards/rec

age 26 (2014) - only started 2 games

2011 Combine: Moore ran a 4.43 forty with a 36 in vertical

2011 Tennessee Pro Day: Moore ran a 4.39 forty

this was written about him a year ago:

"Moore is unlikely to see even half the playing time he has over the past three seasons. ... Given his production and speed, he would make a nice trade target for a receiver needy team. Someone like the Carolina Panthers, who have nothing but a raw rookie, aging slot receivers, and untested practice options squad to throw to, Moore is a perfect option.

...

(Raiders GM) Reggie McKenzie will likely seek a 6th round pick, since Moore is young, has proven talent, and has good starting experience. It may seem silly to send off a starting receiver, but the Raiders would be wasting his talents and letting him waste the final year of his rookie contract on the bench ... While keeping a starting caliber receiver around as a depth piece may seem like a smart move, its best to let him move on to..gain some compensation in return."

Saints blog that wants the Saints to sign Denarius:

"[with Colston due $9.7 million for next season and Robert Meachem turning 31], I like the team to search for a wide receiver in free agency, but not a high caliber player [like Jeremy Maclin]. A guy like Denarius Moore, who has largely fell victim to his own environment (Oakland), could be a good fit for the Saints offense."

    • Very Odd, seems someone is lying about the "love" between Seattle and canales.  I did read some about B.johnson and he said he wanted a stable good job and that 5 out 8 teams that filled this past season, will be open again in three years. I somewhat get his point, but he's lost millions the past two years waiting. Plus great job are never open cause great team don't fire their HCs. He put lots of time and sweat into the lions and wanted to enjoy the good times longer.    I do think tepper made other coaches not want to be here. That all-star staff had as you stated had connections around the league and coaches are no different when someone contracts them and goes " How was it Carolina ??'.... " Love the area, hated the work environment/owner". They did get Brian Callahan to interview and had a 2nd one lined up, but in just one interview titans hired him. I'd much rather had him or just name evero HC instead.  Nobody wanted Ron Rivera either and he interviewed everywhere. No one wants this job..... even the jags got recent SB winning Doug Peterson.... I truly think Carolina coaching rep is in the dump and they fuged up waiting for Callahan. Panic move. This is my pure guess too, Jim Caldwell is the acting/real HC and canales is the OC.
    • I go back to the hole the Panthers put themselves in and his positive track record with getting production from ‘problem’ QBs. Which, we have one.  I go to the idea people were putting forth on these younger HC prospects - that maybe you take a guy early and let him grow and give him all the help you can. Like a QB go figure. I think that is pretty much where it is right now. I think Canales could be good.   
    • It's like with Friterer was the same as Canales. 'He's a great guy' and everyone loves him but Seattle had a HC opening with ties and no interview, even with a playoff appearance in a weak NFCS to boost his name. The NFL is all about ties and connections. It's so much more a small pond than most sectors could be so the corporate NFL bs is sooooo much thicker. All of those openings and no HC interviews? B Johnson is an anomaly, like a Kiffin, where usually you have guys that will go whereever to take a promotion even if it looks terrible for a distance, Wilks to Arizona comes to mind. It's weird and interesting how the NFL mirrors and then deviates from the rest of corporate America in their MOs.
