A-to-Z Sports Kansas City reporter Charles Goldman explained Moore\u2019s lack of trade value during a mailbag article on July 2.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t see many teams lining up to surrender assets for a player who doesn\u2019t even have 500 career receiving yards,\u201d Goldman told a fan with blunt honesty. \u201cMaybe they luck into a situation where they can get a player-for-player swap with someone else who needs a change of scenery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As Goldman alluded, the small chance of a Moore trade would get a similar type of player back in return, or a very low conditional draft pick, like a conditional seventh rounder. This would only occur if a team with a low-priority waiver wants Moore and doesn\u2019t feel that they can get him with a waiver claim, but even that feels improbable.<\/p>\n<p>Let this serve as a reminder that some Chiefs trade rumors are really just that, a rumor.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Skyy Moore\u2019s Contract Increases Likelihood He Could Be Cut After Chiefs Camp<\/h2>\n<p>On July 1, Arrowhead Pride analyst Jared Sapp illustrated why Moore\u2019s contract actually increases the likelihood of him being cut in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile Moore\u2019s $1.5 million salary for the final season of his rookie deal is hardly significant, nine currently rostered wide receivers have cheaper 2025 salaries,\u201d Sapp began. \u201cLike [cornerback Joshua] Williams, none of Moore\u2019s 2025 base salary is guaranteed (he would leave behind about $543,000 in dead money from a signing bonus proration and a likely earned 2025 workout bonus).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Including 2025 draft pick Jalen Royals, Sapp went on to point out that \u201cin a deep receiving room, it is hard to see how Moore will differentiate himself from the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has never developed a role on special teams, with only 55 career snaps on the third unit over three seasons,\u201d the writer reasoned. \u201c[Plus,] his lack of size limits his blocking upside, making him ill-suited for most three and four-wide receiver packages.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sapp concluded that \u201cMoore will face heavy competition [at Chiefs camp] from cheaper players more experienced with the dirty-work responsibilities of a reserve wideout.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRbtmY4VShFh7dlfWhn0YKIhuK01F5297mPbw&amp;s\" alt=\"\u201cFu*k KC\u201d: Chiefs hit with racial bias lawsuit, fans stunned over pay gap and wrongful firing claims | NFL News - Times of India\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Chiefs Rumor Predicts WR Skyy Moore Will Be Cut, Not Traded, in 2025<\/h2>\n<p>During the same mailbag article, Goldman told a fan that he does not expect Moore to make the initial 53-man roster.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think Moore makes the 53-man roster in 2025 because the competition at wide receiver is at a different level compared to years past,\u201d he said. Noting that it would take an \u201cepic\u201d training camp and preseason from Moore or injuries at WR to change that.<\/p>\n<p>Having said that, Goldman did discuss the upside of keeping the underwhelming draft pick, despite his slight bump in salary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMoore adds some value in several ways,\u201d he wrote. \u201cThe offensive coaching staff loves him because he knows all three wide receiver positions (X, Z, and Zebra) inside and out. He\u2019s going to be in the right place at the right time, run the right routes, and all of that jazz.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[Moore] might not be the fastest or create the most separation, but they know he\u2019ll be where he needs to be at a given time,\u201d Goldman continued. \u201cThat\u2019s no small feat either, ask Justyn Ross.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Finally, he reminded that \u201cMoore also has value on special teams as a kick and punt return specialist, which will be downplayed, but it\u2019s essential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ahead of training camp, a Kansas City reporter shut down a Chiefs trade rumor that fans and NFL sites have been speculating about for years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":27301,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27300","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-kansas-city-chiefs"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BREAKING NEWS : \ud83d\udea8 KC Insider Shuts Down \ud83d\udd25 Viral Chiefs Trade Rumor Just Before Training Camp \u2013 What Does It Mean?
