Friendly Reminder

@Mitchl13 I'm not trying to imply he is already better then them but at the age of 21 on his contract I am very happy with his body of work. He should be a elite wr for a long time, probably after all of them are gone.

I agree. He’s been as expected for a first round wr. Much better than Ridley. 

I would just like to have another Top WR to pair him with. I think if you put him with another elite receiver, he could be dangerous.

Think Moose and Smitty for those years.

Its gonna be hard to get 2 because of the cap wich is the same reason we had a hard time holding onto moose. Best thing if you want a pair of wrs for a long time is to have one not outplay a decent contract but still run the Y good. That comes down to dumb luck but i think we may have found it in curtco, a guy that can catch it short and turn it into something and run the 9 route with speed to keep the defenses honest but maybe doesn't run the full route tree polished enough. Keeping them out of cover 1 and making splash plays is all you need from a 2 or y reciever. Let DJ do work and when they are paying too much attention to him and CMC , Cam to Curt deep. We can hope to have another Smitty within 20 years, if DJ consistently puts up 1 to 1.5k numbers we got real lucky cause usually you get a wr just good enough but not hof good.

I would love to see 2 wrs of that quality but the chances of it happening are super low because of our needs are in the trenches. We would have to get incredibly lucky on a late rd wr to upgrade over Curtis. Good chat, it's always nice to have one without the insults or little to no thought comments. That is a problem with this board, would love to see the culture change.

tbh I thought it was bizzare that a prime athelete would go vegan when a lot of his game is so physical. He probably would benefit from getting a lot more protein and calories , he lost a poo ton of weight last offseason. 

You can get just as much protein from a plant based diet as you can with a diet that includes meat. The only difference is amino acids which can be replaced by supplements. Some plant based protein contains all 9 essential amino acids like quinoa. I’m so tired of hearing this argument. It’s outdated and ignorant. He is a word class athlete. He knows what he’s doing.

No defense we play has to game plan for Moore. 
 

If Mike Evans was on this team would he be the #1? No.

How about Julio, Michael Thomas, OBJ, Hopkins, etc. Those are guys have you have to plan around.

Moore is only our number one because the rest of our receivers are garbage!!!!!!!

You named the top 5 WRs in the NFL

DJ Moore was 3rd in the NFL in receiving yards before his concussion, catching passes from Kyle Allen

He might not be as good as those 5 guys (might take him over Mike Evans), but he's around the 7th best WR in the NFL, at 22 years old, and could be best in the league by next year
