Don't worry. 

I'll eventually get to a breakdown on Moton. You'll see exactly why he was a top 3 pass blocker from this class.

I'm not arguing he's not top-3 at his position.  I LOVE the pick.  But the fact remains he still has elements of his game he can refine.

He's a rookie.  

He's a 2nd round pick.

Way to accentuate the obvious.

My fault.  I thought a discussion board about the Carolina Panthers was the place to come to discuss said second round picks.  And in a thread dedicated to said rookie, to boot.  Maybe I'm confused.

I think people are just giving you poo because you're making a sweeping judgement on a player off of one still image where he's finishing a block on an engagement he's obviously won.

Where was my sweeping judgment? I acknowledged they are still frames. Looking at those still frames shows a player on his toes. That's something to comment on, no? Typical #HuddleReax

He was a very solid pick. I've heard that some say him being from a small school will "hurt him," but I say his production says otherwise.

Moton's run and pass blocking were near the top percentile. For a 320lb guy, he's got crazy athleticism and power.

Just imagining his ferocity on the field that he puts in drills gives me chills.

I like Daryl Williams. I honestly do. But Moton is another guy I'd love as a pure RT. One of the best pass blockers from the class, and I'm sure Igo saw a glimpse of that.

Am I reading the graph right to suggest he is only below average on screen blocking? I wonder if pulling on some of our sweeps or reverses is included in run blocking?

Think about how the offensive scheme could impact those scores. Idk what type of offensive scheme Moton served in so playcalling might impact that concern you have (maybe or maybe not). All the other scores verify that he is solid and gets the job done for the most part compared to his counterparts.

Agreed.  Did you happen to attend the ECU graduation last night?

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
