Ok... I recall when this guy was picked up last year, that people were kinda high on him for a "future" thing.. or the fact that if we needed a someone in the return game if I recall.

Then I read this article: http://www.panthers.com/Common/Article.aspx?id=44528

He seems to be pretty determined, and I guess being pretty local, he's got kinda a "home town kid" sorta thing going on.

What are the chances of him actually making the field do you think?

I don't know much about him, so if any one's got any info on him, that'd be cool too.

I looked up his Bio here: http://wakeforestsports.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/moore_kenneth00.html

I'm just wondering what he might have to offer, or is he more a "fodder" sorta guy now?

He seems pretty determined to get out there in that Article from Panthers.com. Seems to have his focus right.

Looking at what we have at the moment, I see the line up at WR as:

1. Smitty

2. Moose

3. Jarrett

4. Robinson

5. ???

on the team right now listed they have Kenneth Moore and Kevin McMahan.

Being Moore is local.. is that pretty much the only reason he got an article about him on the site ya think?

Anyway... I figured I'd ask because it's something different to talk about.

He definitely has some potential. I think he ended up being a 5th round pick, although it was the Lions who drafted him. I watched him play at Wake and he is well-rounded as he played wide out and in the backfield as well as returning kicks. Im not sure being local has much to do with why he is on the roster.

He will be this years Jason Carter.

Jason Carter could very well be this years Jason Carter. If he would have not had the injury he would have made the roster thats for sure. Moore has alot of talent to battle this year.

Based on athleticism, talent level and speed, I think Moore has the edge as a WR and return man. Carter is good, but Moore IMO is better. It will be an interesting battle in TC to say the least. It would be nice to see Moore developed as a 3rd WR at some point.

he's from my hometown and played at Wake Forest, he's good fellas. Got good hands and hard to tackle....but he's small, the biggest quality is his youth. The Panthers have the chance to mold him into the athlete that they want...should be interesting to see if he makes the field though

he will be, though. he'll be cheap for TC.

If he's so cheap why has he not been signed yet. I doubt his contract would makeup the top 53 that count agaisnt the cap. I'm not saying he won't be on the team come training camp but if he's not already signed I don't think it's a garuntee like some are making it out to be.

If he makes it to the WR position, it will be kinda cool hearing, "pass complete from Moore to Moore for a TD"!!!!

Then the chants of Moore, Moore, Moore from the crowds will ring out!

Go Panthers!

it would be cool if we had that and had johnson and johnson and the DEF side of the ball as DE

      Deep Ball in Cyclical Decline

      AI Analysis on ideal round to draft certain positions.

      By strato · Posted

      Too much to ask picking in the middle of the third round. Unless you are historically lucky. Hell you need luck in the 1st to get that.    The devaluation of the position is hard for me to understand when I look at the difference great MLBs have made to defenses over the years.  Defense needs a good QB too. MLB is the QB of the defense.

      Deep Ball in Cyclical Decline

      By NAS · Posted

      Across the league.  5 straight years of decline. Deep pass attempts have fallen to just 7.7 per game in 2024, down from that 2019 peak. Air yards per attempt are at 7.7 yards this year—the lowest in over a decade. Overall passing yards per game have tanked too, from 496 in 2020’s early weeks to a  403 in 2024.    This trend is a result of defenses playing with two-high safety schemes designed to prevent deep passes, forcing offenses to seek yards after the catch on shorter throws.  Two-high safety calls are everywhere now—up from 44% of dropbacks in 2019 to 63% in 2024—forcing QBs to take shorter throws instead of risking picks on bombs. Add in more presnap disguises, faster pass rushes (QB pressure up to 30.1% of dropbacks), and lighter, quicker D-linemen, and it’s a nightmare for deep shots.    Offenses have adapted with emphasizing power run games to counter deep coverage and fast but leaner pass rushers.  Rushing attempts per game are up to 27.9 per game average with top teams significantly in the 30+ attempts.  QBs are emphasizing more short and intermediate throws so that the few deep passes they attempt have a higher completion percentage overall than in years past.    So to everyone who is frustrated with lack of deep passing, it’s all cyclical and right now emphasis on the run and taking more calculated shots is the way to go.
