Chris Moore

Chris Moore did not see the production he wanted in his rookie season. The fourth round pick finished the 2016 season with only 46 total receiving yards on seven receptions. Being behind Smith Sr., Wallace and Perriman did not allow him to get as much game time. In the little time he saw last season he struggled catching the football. That did not give help with the confidence.

Now with Smith gone, Moore has a chance to play a major role for the Ravens offense this upcoming season. The expectations are going to be much higher for him now that he has a year of experience under his belt. The Ravens are going to need him to step up and play much better than his rookie season. Moore’s size and speed allow him to be a target down the middle of the field. He has the ability to be a dangerous receiver after the catch and break tackles. If Moore can limit the dropped passes, I can see him having a breakout second year.
