Ole Miss. 29. 49. Scouting Report. WR. Elijah Moore. player. Pick Analysis

A name that has been tossed around with the Packers a lot lately is dynamic Ole Miss receiver Elijah Moore.

The Packers need some receivers to take the pressure off Aaron Rodgers and Moore would be one of the most talented draftees the veteran quarterback would get to throw to since he joined the league. Davante Adams is arguably the best receiver in the league, but he needs a true WR2 to really take some of the focus from defenders.

Moore has the opportunity to be a star at the next level despite his smaller frame. He stands just 5-foot-9 and 185 pounds, but he was electric in Ole Miss’ offense against some of the best teams in college football. He also got better each year with 36 catches for 398 yards and two touchdowns as a freshman to 86 catches for 1,193 yards and eight touchdowns as a junior.

Rodgers would have a field day if he had Adams and Moore to throw to every Sunday with a little Allen Lazard mixed in.
