Although a lot of things have gone south with the Carolina Panthers lately, one arrow is pointing straight north — the one attached to rookie wide receiver DJ Moore.
In the past two weeks, Moore has established himself as the team’s best wide-receiving target. I don’t know if he’s going to keep that designation or have a rookie drop-off, but right now he’s the Panthers’ best yardage-after-the-catch wideout since Steve Smith was telling defensive backs to “Ice up, son!” If his strong development continues, the Panthers will likely find it easier to part ways in the 2019 free-agency period with Devin Funchess.
