Purdue WR Rondale Moore says he studies Cooper Kupp
Cooper Kupp came into the NFL as a third-round pick but based on the hype surrounding him, you’d have thought he was taken in Round 1. The hype was warranted, too, because he already has 3,570 career receiving yards and 24 touchdowns in four seasons, all while missing 10 games since 2017.
He’s become a player that other wide receivers and cornerbacks respect, and someone younger prospects watch to improve their own skill sets. Purdue wide receiver Rondale Moore, who’s a potential first-round pick this year, said Kupp is one of the wideouts he studies.
He mentioned Kupp along with Stefon Diggs, Keenan Allen, Julio Jones and Tyreek Hill as receivers he watches film of.
“Kupp, love the way he plays with tempo,” Moore said on the “2 for 1 Drafts” podcast.
Kupp can run just about every route in the book, which is an area where Moore is trying to improve. Kupp does it despite not being the fastest or most athletic receiver, too, using technique, head fakes and changing speeds to set defenders up in the secondary.
Kupp is a good player for Moore to study because every receiver can benefit from studying the way he runs routes.
