You've got anything to back this up? I think Moses has a very reasonable case for top 20 and anything below 25 is questionable to me.

I think you can make quite reasonable case for Moses being top 20. I have him just a little lower myself.


I don’t think so. He’s in the late 20s to early 30s range to me and certainly not a t20 lock

That's fair, it's your opinion. I don't agree with it, top 25 is a lock for him in my opinion. Arguing for top 20 certainly isn't out of mind.

I will say I think there might be room to argue Moses outside of the top 25 just as there is to argue him inside the top 15. It really depends how high you are on his strengths and how low you are on his weaknesses imo and how those factor into your methodology. Such as how his offense impacts team offense, his defense, playing on a lot of mediocre teams and his decline after the age of 30.
