Per @StaceyDales, Purdue WR Rondale Moore ran an unofficial 4.29 40-yard dash and jumped 42.5 inches in the vert at his Pro Day this morning. Insane athlete.

Great 49ers gift ideas ⇨

Dude is a freak!

7 games in 2 seasons....big pass for me.

Perfect 49er. Dynamic player who gets hurt all the time. lol

Seriously though, this kid would be awesome in this offense and can be our KR/PR.

My draft crush. He's a little Hercules with explosive quickness and elite speed. I don't think I've ever seen a WR cut so easily with his routes. The epitome of a jitterbug. You can't cover this guy.

Kyle shouldn't be allowed to have Moore in the slot. It wouldn't be fair. The problem is that he'll probably go in the 2nd round (falls due to his height).

You wouldn't have drafted Frank Gore.

Different builds.

Would love this guy or Elijah Moore some how

Don't forget Dyami Brown

This dude isn't fragile and an always-injured guy. Also, don't look at his size and assume he's a fragile guy. He's quite the opposite.

Dude squatted over 600lbs as a freshman. That viral video might've even been from right out of HS. He's short, but chiseled.

Yes, in 2019 he injured his hamstring and missed the remainder of the season. In 2020, he opted out for Corona and to focus on the draft. He then decided to come back and play later in the season. He wasn't injured.

He had one the best freshman seasons ever. He was completely dominant. There's plenty of videos of him just completely embarrassing DBs in practice. They're falling down, getting twisted up, and completely on skates. It's like watching those And One videos.

He has legit 4.2 speed and equals that with his elite quickness. He runs the jet sweeps as well as anyone and he's always a threat to score. He's a smaller, quicker Deebo. If he's hanging around later in the 2nd I hope we go get him.

Instant member of the YAC bros. But I don't see him making it to the 3rd, where we would have to trade up for him anyway. Just depends on how they view the priorties right now. As much as the #3 pick is a mystery, in a way I'm just as excited for our 2nd and 3rd rounders b/c they can go so many different directions. If I had to handicap it I'd say:
Cb
OL (Center who can play G or OT who slips)
Slot/PR
Edge (soft class to begin with and I think there is a big drop off after the 1st few studs)

I have my concerns about Moore. He is not a natural receiver, and his utilization would worry me on any team other than a shanahan offense. No doubt he'd have a chance to be very productive here, and give defensive coordinators headaches with all the potential with misdirection, but he is still a bit redundant with what we already have on the roster. He's not a natural route runner or catcher, and was mostly used on gadget plays. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure he missed games this season not because of covid but because of a lower body injury, which would make two major lower body injuries in two years resulting in a lot of missed games. He's strong as hell but sometimes joints aren't meant to sustain so much weight and compression from the heavy lifting on a naturally small body.

Moore had a bad hamstring injury that he aggravated in training camp and kept him out for a couple games. You have to remember that Purdue only played 6 games this season as a whole. It's not like he stayed injured, he had one injury.

Sleepin on this dude
