Oakland rookie wideout Denarius Moore might be best player on the team

According to the Contra Costa Times and some members of the Oakland Raiders' coaching staff, there is buzz building that rookie receiver Denarius Moore @DenariusMoore is "not only the best wide receiver on the field, oftentimes he is the best player, period." Raiders head coach Hue Jackson added, "It goes without question what he's doing. For me to talk about him, there's no reason to. You get to see his plays because he jumps over people and he makes these fantastic catches and he runs with punts and all that."

Fantasy Analysis:

Is this a classic example of hyperbole? It's possible. A hometown newspaper and the head coach both think they got a steal in the draft, and there's nothing wrong with that. All that said, Moore's fantasy value is still very under the radar. At best, he'll be one of Oakland's top three receivers and the team's primary punt returner. Does this mean he should be a player owned in every league? I don't think so but this is a player to keep an eye on since this high praise isn't that common. Jacoby Ford is a fantasy guru favorite with his blazing speed and he remains the top option among Oakland's receivers.
