Jay Hopson on Tarvarius Moore: ‘I think the 49ers got a steal’

When the 49ers drafted Tarvarius Moore in the fourth third round of the 2018 NFL Draft, it may have left a few scratching their heads. Perhaps some hadn’t heard of Moore and others wondered why another safety when they had Jaquiski Tartt and Adrian Colbert. Well, the 49ers wasted no time in moving Moore to cornerback where he’ll play in the pros, and he may have a chance to be something special.

“I think the 49ers got a steal. He’s a kid that’s going to get better and better, that athleticism is off the charts,” said Jay Hopson, his former head coach at Southern Miss.
