Ooh, I love this question.
I lean DJ Moore.
Not to sa- I, I love the moves that the Rams made in the secondary because there was really only one glaring issue, one issue on that Rams team last year, and it was the secondary.
Yeah.
So what do they do?
They go out and they push a bunch of money into that position group.
Yeah.
The Rams did the right thing as a, a Super Bowl contender.
I, however, I don't My own personal football philosophy, I don't believe in investing a lot of money into a secondary.
I believe your best secondary comes from your pass rush.
Mm-hmm.
Get to the quarterback, it makes the corner's job a lot easier.
So I think it's just by nature of the position, I think that DJ Moore will make a bigger impact for Josh Allen and the Bills.
And part of the reason is because I love what Joe Brady does with receivers.
You see the helmet behind me.
I went to LSU.
I covered that 2019 team, and I talked to Justin Jefferson about this at the Super Bowl, about what Joe Brady's gonna offer the Bills.
And he was like, "He unlocked something in me and Jamar.
He unlocked that passing game."
Yeah.
"He just knew wh- like, where to put us, the right verbiage.
He knew exactly how to make this passing game tick."
And now they have, obviously, the superman in Josh Allen, one of the best quarterbacks on the planet.
The issue is he just hasn't had the playmakers around him.
Now, I don't think that DJ Moore is an elite receiver, but he is absolutely an upgrade from what they ha- Oh, yeah they have had.
So I, I think he fills a need.
He, he I, I love the, the, their head c- it's weird to call him their head coach now.
I love their head coach and Joe Brady.
So I love that he fits the need, he fits the scheme.
And I'm excited to see how much more explosive this Bills offense can look with the addition of some more stretch-the-field kind of receivers.
