Elijah Moore: An under the radar prospect in 2021 NFL Draft

Where Moore wins

Moore brings a lot of fascinating traits to the table. As a route runner, he is a three-level threat. He understands how to incorporate a good bit of double moves and fakes into his routes that’ll manipulate defensive backs. Moore shows a good bit of nuance in his routes and understands how and when to break off route concepts to generate maximum separation. His footwork in routes is good and he operates with great timing and speed variation to maximize his separation ability.

Moore also thrives with the ball in his hands. Ole Miss implemented a variety of ways to give him the ball as often as possible and created a lot of forced touches or screen passes to give Moore space to work. He has the speed to be a home run threat and blow past defenders. Also is smart with the ball in his hands and knows exactly how to manipulate and work around defenders and get into space.

His athleticism is clear and his speed and agility are a true trump card. Moore showcases fantastic burst and understands how to use it and his movement skills to get the best out of his route running, separation skills, and YAC ability.
