2. Elijah Moore, Ole Miss

Elijah Moore may be one of the more under-discussed wide receivers in this class. He has only played in the slot in his career and is shorter than you would want. However, he is bigger than Rondale Moore and is more of a traditional receiver than a gadget player.

With Elijah Moore, he may not have that short area explosion, but you can see from his 40 and 3-cone that he has the speed and the short-area quickness to handle the slot. Moore has been producing the past two seasons for Ole Miss but really broke out last season.

He is the most refined route runner of the group and is just as athletic as all of them. The Bears may be reaching a touch if they want him round one, but the floor is worth it and the ceiling is there too. Still, if Elijah Moore fell to round two, he would be an excellent fit.
