When discussing WR DJ Moore, Panthers HC Matt Rhule said, "DJ has to take another step this year and be that physical, dominant, go-to receiver that on third-and-5 you're going to." (Joe Pearson on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact
While this is not a ringing endorsement, it shows the Panthers are confident in Moore taking the next step in becoming an elite wideout - one that can be counted on to beat press coverage, make plays, and extend drives. At only 22 years old, Moore is coming off an impressive sophomore campaign with 87 receptions for 1,175 yards and 4 TDs. The arrow is pointing up for him to be the next third-year breakout WR this season and should be a 2nd or 3rd-round selection in 10-12 team redraft and dynasty formats.
