Bargain Free Agent: WR Denarius Moore


gettlemanjack

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."

    • I mean, I think you're being a little hyperbolic with the last statement, but point taken. 
    • Pass rush was the biggest issue in tonight’s game, and we were tied for 28th in sacks this season. That is a major area of need that has to get addressed this offseason. I just don’t see a path where there’s a game changing QB you can bring in with where we are drafting and quality of veterans that will be available. We certainly can do better than Dalton as a backup, and should ideally have a developmental guy  (perhaps a day 3 pick this year). We have bryce for one more year on a reasonable contract and then I think 2027 is the year that you reset that position (unless he massively improves).
    • Agreed, honestly basically bringing this group back as a healthy unit would be alright.  Brady Christensen should be resigned to a very reasonable deal with him recovering from the Achilles.  Atleast we're alright at 4 of our 5 spots with Lewis, Mays, Hunt, and Moton, Nijman was decent.  While if we can snag a deal on someone, take a stab, however our resources need to go to Linebacker, Pass Rush and a real option outside Tmac (coker is amazing, but if we can get someone who isnt braindead opposite Tmac, we can fully unleash Coker AND Tmacs full potential, cant move him into the slot if racoon boy is out there licking doorknobs).
