GAME RECAPS

2019 Week 1 vs NE (10 / 3 / 7 / 0 rec)

The next week for Donte Moncrief may be spent purely on the jugs machine. After being the most targeted wide receiver for the Steelers, Moncrief ended the night with at least four drops, including an 18-yard touchdown which was thrown perfectly. He also had a second end zone target where Ben Roethlisberger was not able to throw the fade route well enough and Moncrief could not get to his spot fast enough. Moncrief showed no tenacity when catching the ball and allowed defenders to separate him from the ball multiple times. The times Moncrief did catch the ball were on shallow crossing routes over the middle where defenders couldn't create contested catch situation. 

2019 Week 2 vs SEA (1 / 0 / 0 / 0 rec)

Being targeted only once should be bad enough for Moncrief, but he did maximum damage with his target on the day. On a routine catch, Moncrief missed the reception and tipped the ball in the air with a defender waiting behind him. The defender showed better hands than Donte Moncrief, securing the tipped ball and intercepting Mason Rudolph on his first drive. Moncrief was benched immediately. Moncrief's drop count currently rests at five going into Week 3.

Yikes.

He was trending up every year after indy drafted him in 14, in the 3rd round, until injuries derailed him in 16 and 17. It seems to be in his head, maybe we can get his confidence back up. He was having average seasons of 600 to 700 yds with Indy, that would be great for a 3rd wr if he can return to form. Hes 6"3 216, runs a 4.40 40 and has a 39.5 verticle. Impressive in that department, hes just got to get them hands right. He also has the ability to take the top off a defense, he cought a 80 yard td while with jacksonville I belive, so lets hope and be positive! He is also only 26 years old.

Jags gave him a Funch-like 1 year 10 million dollar contract (bust) and then signed a deal with Pitt for 2 yr 6 mill. (bust)

God dam if i dont prefer Flash over him and the fact he went to the seachickens burns more.

This is just first glance, high level analysis. I’ve pulled some tape on his last two seasons. I’ll try to give you a better breakdown tonight. Get what they’re looking for. Size, with speed. It’s one thing they lack right now, that combo. The hands are an issue. I’ll take a closer look, and see what kind of product they’re getting. Reuniting with his old position coach is never a bad thing.
