If you need a QB this offseason, there aren’t many with the pedigree of Dante Moore, who ranked as the No. 4 overall prospect in the 2023 recruiting class. Moore is departing Westwood after just one season at the helm, telling 247Sports’ Matt Zenitz he will prioritize a place that can help him continue on his track towards being an early NFL Draft selection.
“For these next upcoming years, I just want to go to a place where I can get developed,” Moore said. “That’s the main thing is really development, making sure you’re bettering yourself every day and having a staff around you that’s going to help develop you. So I’d say the biggest things are going to a place where I can get developed and continue to love and have fun playing football and be around a place that loves college football and be around great athletes.”
Moore has a special foundation as a passer and most impressively he can negotiate passes around defenders. He fits in any offense with solid mobility but he’s not a designed runner. He had his share of freshman moments for UCLA but Moore brings an elite skillset to any team. Over five starts and nine total appearances for the Bruins, Moore threw for 1,610 yards with 11 touchdown passes and nine interceptions. His best game came during a 35-10 win over San Diego State, where he finished 17-for-27 for 290 yards with three touchdown passes and no interceptions.
