One reason why I think Moore's athletic profile fits inside is his quickness. He put up a 6.56 three cone and a 4.04 short shuttle at combine, which are excellent marks regardless of how big you are, let alone for a 6'3" receiver. However, all I'm advocating for is that they try him there in camp. If he hasn't gotten his hands figured out, then he isn't a fit anywhere. I am sure that any reputable statistics outlet is only counting a player as putting in a snap in the slot if he is literally in the slot. They understand that the Z, or flanker position it not the same thing as the slot position. I will say that you're right about Graham-- playing in the slot seems like it's about the only fit for him in Petals' offense. He cannot block well enough to play in line. However, he's also not a threat after the catch, which makes him less than ideal in the slot as well. They really shouldn't be basing any plans around Graham anyways. He's gone after this year. Shoot, I'm still hoping he gets traded during the draft.</blockquote>
