Good week for Rahim Moore at the NFL combine
The NFL combine is over. It didn't go too well for Akeem Ayers. He still has time though as he can shine during UCLA Pro Day. He will still likely be a first round pick because the potential based on his raw talent is too much for teams to ignore.
No such issues for Rahim, who had a good combine.
Locked in as the top safety in the draft coming in, his solid workout did nothing to dissuade that opinion. Moore put up solid numbers in the athletic drills while showing excellent footwork and fluidity in defensive back drills. He caught the ball exceptionally well and is one of the more natural centerfielder-type safeties in this year's class.
Rahim appears to have cemented his position as the draft's top safety:
UCLA S Rahim Moore looked good in position drills, showing quick feet and more fluid hips than expected. He was technically sound when turning and running, and just like on film Moore tracked the ball very well.
Here are some of his comments from the combine talking about analyzing film:
Good luck to both Rahim and Akeem.

Only part of the Combine I watched was the last day with DB's
The biggest thing I focused on were the position drills. Only 3 players that I saw looked like they were on a different level of fluidity with their change of direction and flipping of the hips.
Peterson, the LSU corner who is like a Top 5 pick.
Rahim, the top safety (who was getting called “Rahim the Dream” by the other players there) and
Sharece Wright from $C (who is going to be a playmaker at the next level. guy has skills)
Deion Sanders was praising Rahim every time that he was on the screen, more so than Peterson or Prince Akumura or anyone.

Got knocked out by Andrew Luck. Soft.
quite possibly my favorite moment of last year. saw that live.
Luck is a big dude. When you don’t see someone that big coming, it is going to end very poorly. haha

Even with all the losses during his time at UCLA
I think it’s nearly impossible to not root for Rahim. He’s handled himself just about as well as a person can.
