There's definitely a little Welker in Moe's game.
FOXBOROUGH – The team-building process was just getting started when the final round of the NFL Draft closed, as teams flocked to the open market to scoop up the college hopefuls who were not selected during the seven-round affair.
The process is still ongoing and many of the reporting singing are yet to be confirmed. One name that initially stands out, and was confirmed by his agent, belongs to Missouri’s T.J. Moe.
The 5-foot-11, 204 pound receiver was phased out a little bit as the offense became more about quarterback James Franklin’s running ability, but as a sophomore, when things were still passing oriented, he caught 92 passes for 1,045 yards with six touchdowns.
And then there’s this from his draft profile on NFL.com:
“Compact and solid frame. Works well over the middle, showing the toughness to hold onto the ball after taking a hit. Physical and aggressive route runner. Reliable hands. Good quickness in and out of his breaks.”
Sound like anyone familiar? If not, watch his film reel you'll certainly see some Werlkerisms.
