Oregon quarterback Dante Moore has drawn national attention this season and for good reason. The Ducks passer seems to be a game managing, but that’s not to be a bad label.<\/p>\n

On Monday, Moore received one of his most notable endorsements yet from Todd McShay. During an episode of The McShay Show, the longtime NFL Draft analyst offered a striking comparison to Houston Texans star C.J. Stroud.<\/p>\n

McShay said Moore\u2019s field vision and rhythm passing mirrors the former Ohio State standout. \u201cDante Moore is C.J. Stroud,\u201d McShay said. \u201cHe\u2019s got some mobility but he won\u2019t run unless it\u2019s wide open. Doesn\u2019t love getting hit. Not twitchy in the pocket, so he\u2019s gonna take some hits. But he\u2019s the best pure passer in the country.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moore has done his job, guiding fifth-ranked Ducks to a 10-1 record and a likely path back to the College Football Playoff. The former five-star recruit has completed 72.9 percent of his passes for 2,447 yards, 23 touchdowns and six interceptions through 11 games.<\/p>\n

Moore\u2019s rapid development and his recent performances against Minnesota and USC stand out. \u201cThere is a definitive progression being made,\u201d McShay said. \u201cSmooth stroke. Everything is thrown catchable\u2026 The guy is special with his passing skills.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Moore\u2019s college production hasn\u2019t yet reached Stroud\u2019s, there still time for more growth and an upcoming College Football Playoff run.<\/p>\n
