What DJ Moore Wants Bears to Do with First-Round Picks

DJ Moore made a past appearance on the St. Brown brothers' podcast while espousing the virtues of Mountain Dew.

Apparently it eventually landed him a commercial deal with the company that will be apparent to all watching the Super Bowl.

"Now Baha Blast is a big deal and on Sunday there's a big commercial coming out and I can't wait to see it," Moore said Thursday from Super Bowl radio row on Pro Football Talk. "I may or may not be a part of it."

Now Moore is hoping something else he once put his two cents worth in about also comes to fruition. 

That would be his quarterback, Justin Fields. 

It's going to take more than draft analysts raving about Caleb Williams for a month to change Moore's mind about who should throw him passes.

A month after Moore told Matt Eberflus and Ryan Poles at his exit interview that the Bears should keep Fields as quarterback, the receiver's opinion remains unaltered. A season when Moore was Fields' main guy with 96 receptions for 1,354 yards and eight TDs proved to be a selling point.

"For Justin to be here? I mean, it'll be amazing," Moore said then. "Nobody really wants to start all the way over and either having a losing season again or maybe have a, what's the quarterback from the Bengals when he came out? Joe Burrow? You could have that kind of season. You never know. It's a hit or miss. We're going to have to wait and see."

In Burrow's first year, the Bengals went 2-8-1 and then he suffered season-ending tears of meniscus, the ACL, MCL and PCL. However, he came back and two years later took the Bengals to a Super Bowl.

At Las Vegas Thursday, Moore agreed with PFT's Mike Florio and Chris Sims' on giving Fields another chance.

"You took the words right out of my mouth," Moore said. "You said everything I've been saying. His growth has been phenomenal. If you look at the games where he came back off of injury, he's been everything that you could ask out of a quarterback.
