Why is Eddie Moore so Hated

[Dphins4me]

This is a legitimate question. Just about every post that brings his name up, its a post knocking him. Saying how he sucks and everything. My question is why? Why the hatered of him? Is it simply Jamar Fletcher done over again. A fans we hated the pick, so we hate the player and no matter what we will always hate him.
I've seen people knocking him for not starting this year. However when ask, they cannot tell you who should be benched in his favor.
Like I said. This is a legit question and I'm trying to understand why Phins fan have turned on him when he has yet to even get his feet wet for them.
Thanks

I personally dont hate Eddie Moore. I just hate the pick we wasted on him that we couldve easily drafted him MUCH later. We couldve gotten Anquain Boldin or Tyrone Calico instead.

Yeah I think most people don't hate Moore the person...just the spot he was taken in the draft. Some people DO take their hatred a bit too far but what can ya do.

Because fans are idiotic and fickle?

Let him get an int or sack and the fans will worship him.

Eddie needs to get on the field in order for that to happen.

And given what he has shown in practices and the rare moments of preseason action, it doesn't look like he'll see the field any time soon. Derrick Pope will crack the lineup before Eddie Moore does.

Pope will not see the field until Zach is gone. Pope is not an OLB.

Moore might be replacing Seau next year or Greenwood if he leaves via FA.

Last I heard before he got injured last season was that he was seriously pushing Morlon Greenwood for the starting SLB spot.

I haven't really heard alot about him in training camp or preseason for that matter. That usually isn't good.:tongue:

I don't really dislike him at all. Although, I was REALLY rooting for the Phins to draft Boldin with that selection.

I agree, plus the fact that he can't get off a block.

i think the reason dolfans dislike moore and fletcher is becuase they were both drafted with our first picks of the fins drafts at positions that were not the biggest area of need for the fins at the time. Fletcher was an obvious waste of a pick, but we need more time to know abour moore. I just think the fins should have gone with either calico or boldin instead of moore and probably could have gotten moore later on. i don't think anyone thought boldin would be as good as he was last year, but i thought he or Calico would have been a nice second or third WR for the fins.
