He came out of Ja'Marr Chase's shadow during the 2020 college football season.

Moore has a lightning quick speed close to the speed that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill has. Moore will be a nice addition for the New England Patriots in the second-round of this year's draft.#Patriots draft target: Purdue WR Rondale Moore. Moore only played in 7 games over the last two seasons due to injury but is an electric ball carrier and quick-twitch WR. Bottom of the screen. Natural separation skills. Attacks angles, suddenness, and instant acceleration. pic.twitter.com/N9Lc4UdnDR— Evan Lazar (@ezlazar) January 21, 20215) 2021 NFL Draft Rumors: New England Patriots replace Julian Edelman with Nico CollinsMichigan WR Nico CollinsNico Collins has the potential to be a sleeper pick at the wide receiver position.
