Pros: Versatility-Moore can return kicks and punts as well as both corner spots (boundary & field). Has good speed, can stay with burners adequately and has an advanced backpedal in which he stays low to get in and out of breaks. Doesn't bite on double-moves and plays the ball well leading to interceptions and pass break-ups. Used to covering the best receiver on every SEC opponent's team and has performed at top notch levels.
Cons: Overall size is marginal, he can be shielded away by bigger receivers in possession catch situations. Not an all-star in run support but not afraid to come up and help on sweeps.
Overall: Excellent cornerback prospect. Probably going to be a solid boundary corner. His excellent man-to-man skills will be sought after on the first day of selections as well as his punt return skills. Third best corner prospect in the 2009 draft.
