LaCanfora predicts Moore as Rookie of the Year

2018 NFL Predictions
 

Quote

Offensive Rookie of the Year: D.J. Moore

He is a plug-and-play playmaker in what I anticipate will be a dynamic offense in Carolina. He is learning three receiver positions on the fly, so his speed of thought will have to catch up to his speed of play, but I don't think it will take very long. Cam Newton already trusts him, and he can be explosive in the slot and on the outside and will see plenty of run-after-the-catch with him, too.

Him, Barkley & some random mid to late rounder will be top 3.

That’s odd considering he looked like the 4th best receiver on our roster all preseason.

[Ricky Spanish]

I really don't see it happening. I don't think there are enough touches to go around.

How seriously do you take LaCanfora?

The hope, of course, is that he'll look better once live ammo starts flying.

While I love Moore, I don't think he will be a "serious" RoY contender, and that isn't a slight against him.  I think he will put up good numbers.  I just think Cam will have plenty of weapons that the Panthers will not have to rely on Moore enough to get RoY numbers. 

Cam being Cam (running it himself, even if they are trying to move away from it), Funchess, CMC, CJ Anderson, the rest of the WR corp that is amazing for a Panthers team...

I just think the numbers will be too split up between the targets for Moore to have a RoY season, numbers wise.  And this is not a bad thing.

Slightly below anything breaking from Ian Rappaport

[LinvilleGorge]

I definitely hope he is, but o seriously doubt it. RBs probably have the easiest transition to the NFL of all positions and one of the best RB prospects in recent memory was in this last draft and then you have to consider that QBs get all the glory and that there will likely be 2-3 rookie QBs starting this year.

Agreed

He did look Real good in camp then in game 1 as well.  Had some people buzzing around here even igo, saying they thought he'd end up being our leading WR this year.  

Then the last 3 games, he's disappeared.

 

Meanwhile Samuel has looked like a Stud, Funchess is still Funchess.  Wright is going to get his catches "mr 3rd down".  Olsen is still among the best TEs and will get catches, as will Thomas.  Ron wants to get CMC the ball a Ton.  Smith has looked baaaad but Ron will keep him on the field until he gets hurt just because he's a "vet"

 

Just no Footballs to go around to him to get those big #s

[Ted Ginn Jr.'s Hands]

I'm expecting Curtis Samuel to finish w/ more catches / yards

[Palmetto]

I want to see 1k yards and 10 Tds at least

[Jase]

Considering La Canfora lives in the state of Maryland, I am sensing some regional bias.

[hsfolk]

for a WR to get OROY, they probably have to put up like 1,200 yards and 10+ TDs
