1. Skyy Moore

Moore is flying a bit under the radar as a prospect largely because he didn’t play in a Power 5 conference. The former Western Michigan star’s talent and versatility won’t be slept on by the Chiefs’ brain trust.

Moore ran a quality 4.41 second 40-yard-dash at the Combine but he doesn’t rely on his speed to generate separation. His best skill as a receiver comes in his ability to run a wide variety of routes at a high level.

That’s just the sort of receiver that can flourish in Reid’s complex offensive system. Moore lined up frequently in the slot during his collegiate career but there’s no reason he can’t line up outside at the next level as well. Kansas City is an ideal landing spot for Moore because no team can afford to double team anyone not named Hill or Kelce on a regular basis.

The Chiefs are going to consider a lot of receiver prospects at the end of Round 1 but Moore could be the best stylistic fit for their offense. Kansas City fans should be excited if he ends up being their guy at No. 30.
