#2. Skyy Moore (ADP - 119.3, WR43)

Expectations were higher for Skyy Moore in 2022, but the former second-round pick was limited to just 274 yards on 25 touches. With Juju Smith-Schuster and Kadarius Toney (for now) out of the picture, the sky is the limit for Moore.

So far this preseason, the 22-year old has played the second-most snaps (17) with Patrick Mahomes among the wide receivers, trailing only Marquez Valdes-Scantling (20). The next closest is rookie Rashee Rice, who has 11.

At the moment, Moore has a clear path to playing time and has very little competition for both targets and snaps. Mahomes loves to work underneath and over the top, and leads all QBs in throws to slot receivers since 2021. This means that Moore could quickly find himself as the No. 2 option to Travis Kelce in this high-powered Kansas City Chiefs offense. And, if the sophomore receiver can establish himself quickly, he's never coming off the field.

Tyreek Hill was already good when Mahomes arrived in 2018, and he was being drafted as a WR2 that year before blowing up with over 1,400 receiving yards. Moore has the opportunity to do the same, except he's being drafted as a bench option in most formats. Take the biggest steal of the draft while you can.
