Who Should I Start? David Moore or Danny Gray

Carolina Panthers wide receiver David Moore caught all three of his targets for 26 yards during Saturday's preseason contest against the Houston Texans. The veteran pass-catcher now has five receptions on nine targets through two games this summer. He was somewhat productive in a low-end depth role last season, but he's likely competing for a roster spot now that Carolina brought in external reinforcements during the offseason. Jimmy Horn Jr. and Hunter Renfrow are among the players with whom Moore is battling as the roster crunch approaches.

ESPN's Tim McManus writes that Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Danny Gray made an impression this offseason during OTAs and minicamp practices open to reporters, using his 4.33-second speed to stretch the field and accelerate past defenders on catches over the middle. The former third-round pick by the San Francisco 49ers in 2022 dealt with injuries and had just one catch on seven targets for 10 yards in his only season with the team back in 2022. A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith are the Eagles' clear top two pass-catchers, but McManus points out that there are roster spots up for grabs behind them. Gray will be competing with the likes of Ainias Smith, Avery Williams and Terrace Marshall Jr. in training camp this summer. The Niners cut Gray at the end of training camp last year and quickly signed with Philly, where he spent all of last year on the practice squad.
