Hell f'n no. Trade a proven pro-bowler for a question mark? No thanks.
but but he's a winner? We need winners! Even if being a winner means you played for a team that regularly recruited four and five star players.

I had been dismissive of him, listening to everyone say he's too small and plays against weak competition. But I've watched a lot of his, and others, games/highlights lately. And I definitely agree. He doesn't have a cannon for an arm, but beside that dude is way underappreciated for the next level.
I don't know why so many teams are obsessed with cannon arms....seriously, unless you are accurate it's worthless. My wish is for the Skins to draft Moore if he is on the board regardless what round it is. I've been sold on him two years ago when no one knew who Andrew Luck was.

Nuh uh! Just ask JaMarcus Russell.

Colt McCoy seems like a perfect parallel for Kellen Moore. Both accurate, smart, and undersized with great intangibles. Granted arm strength can be improved but right now I have a hard time seeing Moore as a high pick.

They're like those guys that overhaul their cars audio system and get a crappy overpowered sub that just makes a ridiculous rattling noise. Personally I'll take accuracy any day over arm strength but teams are seeing Aaron Godgers and hoping to get both, especially when they invest a first round pick. Plus for now the great accurate, but weak arm isn't working to well for McCoy in Cleveland.

Well, arm strength helps. A little more mustard and Rex completes a few more passes.
That said though, I'm with you. Like I said, took me awhile to appreciate his abilities. But color me impressed

Moore is and McCoy are only similar when you look at the stats. Moore is strictly a pocket passer and runs a pro-style offense while Colt ran the spread in Texas and got the chance to run a few run option plays. Statistically, they are definitly comparable, from a style and NFL ready prospective, they aren't on the same page.

Rex can gun it at least 50 yards... don't confuse those awful balls he under threw because he's shitty with his inability to throw the ball deeper than he did.

Fair enough. Wasn't trying to bash Moore. I'm on his bandwagon
