CHARMEACHEALLE MOORE, ILB

This one could go either way, as Charmeachealle Moore is listed on NFL.com’s K-State draft prospects. CBS Sports, however, does not have Moore getting drafted.

Even if [Moore] doesn’t hear his name called could be a perfect option to place on a practice squad.

Moore spent five years with the Wildcats, producing 140 tackles and five a half sacks during that time. He’s not the biggest guy, weighing only 217 pounds, according to his draft profile (linked below), but Moore is worth a flyer pick on for sure.

NFL.com thinks Moore could be a late-round pick depending on how his athleticism tests out, but even if he doesn’t hear his name called could be a perfect option to place on a practice squad. They’re quite high on Moore, which makes me think the kid could be a seventh round selection come draft weekend.

"His draft stock could swing on his athletic testing, but his instincts and playing style should give him a head-start with a position coach who appreciates his approach. Moore could be an early practice squad candidate."

I hope Moore gets a chance in the pros. He was one of my favorite players at K-State during his time there and I’d love to see him flourish in the pros the same way he did in Manhattan.
