The Green Bay Packers will have a virtual pre-draft meeting with one of the most electric offensive playmakers in the 2021 NFL draft.
According to Justin Melo of The Draft Network, the Packers have a meeting scheduled with Purdue receiver Rondale Moore for next month. Moore has been busy, meeting virtually with at least 10 teams already.
A first-team All-Big Ten pick in 2018, Moore finished his collegiate career with 178 catches for 1,915 yards and 14 touchdowns and 30 rushes for 248 yards and three touchdowns. He also returned 42 kickoffs and 17 punts. Overall, he produced 3,094 total all-purpose yards over three seasons and just 20 games.
Moore could provide the Packers with a do-it-all weapon who could operate from the slot, create yards after the catch, run jet motions and be a field-flipping returner. He lacks ideal size – Purdue listed him at 5-9 and 180 – but he is both tough and explosive.
Doug Farrar of Touchdown Wire recently sent Moore to the Packers at No. 29 overall in his first mock draft.
Farrar’s explanation: “Aaron Rodgers wanted new offensive weapons last season, and though the Packers’ offense performed well without them, there were issues. Per Sports Info Solutions, Davante Adams led the NFL with 14 touchdowns when facing single-high coverage. When facing two-high coverage, he scored just one touchdown. Opposing defenses were able to double Adams with impunity with deep safeties because there was nobody to force safeties into the box as underneath weapons in the passing game. The addition of Rondale Moore would be huge for Matt LaFleur’s offense because Moore is so dynamic on screens, slants, and other quick routes. Combined with Green Bay’s pre-snap motion concepts and play-action game, having a weapon of Moore’s caliber, especially after the catch, would give the Packers an entirely different dimension.”
Moore could be a candidate for the Packers in the first or second round.
