Running Back Rank: #61 Overall: #271
Moore got several starts because of Willie Parker getting banged up. And Moore impressed when given the chance, finishing with 908 total yards and six touchdowns. He proved to be a good spot starter for the Steelers. Moore did a lot of damage in the passing game even when Parker was healthy, catching 40 passes (second time in his career with 40 or more receptions). A healthy Rashard Mendenhall could spell trouble for Moore finding the field this coming season, though. Moore could get some work on passing downs, but might not get much work carrying the ball. Moore is a quick, elusive back with big-play ability. But he isn't suited as an every-down back because he isn't very big.

Don't overvalue Moore based on last season. He isn't likely to get the same amount of work unless injury happens, again. A season with 400 or 500 total yards seems more likely. |
