Reid's debut NFL draft QB Hot Board: Strengths and weaknesses for the top 14 passers
"Where he excels: Moore has been among the biggest risers in the country regardless of position thanks to his accuracy and poise. After starting his career at UCLA in 2023 and then transferring to Oregon and sitting behind Dillon Gabriel last season, Moore has been given the keys to the Ducks' attack this season. He has flourished in the first five games, throwing for 1,210 yards, 14 touchdown passes and 1 interception while showcasing a smooth, compact release."
"After a banner 2024 draft in which a record six quarterbacks went off the board in the first 12 picks, only two QBs were drafted in the first round in 2025. Will 2026 end up closer to the record 2024 crop, or more like the understated 2025 version? We'll start the journey to the answer by stacking quarterbacks who are eligible and could get picked in the 2026 class."
The 2026 NFL draft is scheduled for April 23 in Pittsburgh, and the quarterback class is under early evaluation. The 2024 draft featured a record six QBs in the top 12, while only two went in Round 1 in 2025, raising questions about 2026's depth. Eligibility, injuries, and decisions to remain in school could reshape the class, and more prospects may rise before the combine and pro days. Moore transferred from UCLA to Oregon, earned the starting job, and in five games has thrown for 1,210 yards, 14 touchdowns and one interception, showcasing accuracy, poise and a smooth, compact release. He completed 74.4% (29-of-39) at Penn State for 248 yards.
