Moore completed nearly 70 percent of his passes in four years at Boise State ? not bad, considering Idaho was the only other bowl school to offer a scholarship. Last season, he threw for 3,800 yards with 43 touchdowns and nine interceptions. The 6-foot, 197-pound Moore will have to overcome concerns about his size and arm strength. Drew Stanton, Detroit's No. 3 quarterback, left as a free agent this offseason, opening a potential spot for somebody such as Moore. Only one quarterback under 6-foot-2 was drafted this year ? Wisconsin's 5-foot-11 Russell Wilson went to Seattle in the third round ? so the size issue is one Moore will have to face as he tries to forge a career in the NFL. If Moore does end up playing for the Lions, he may have a chance to toss a few more passes to Titus Young, one of his former college teammates.
