Kevin Weidl from ESPN on Morgan Moses

McShay's mock moves Moses ahead of Zach Martin among OL guys. On the BPA front, it sets him ahead of players like Brandin Cooks, Odell Beckham, Justin Gilbert and both Bridgewater and Manziel among others.

Granted anything is possible in the Draft, but I have a tough time buying into that notion.

I think the Morgan Moses/Zack Martin comparison is kind of like a lesser-talented version of the Greg Robinson/Jake Matthews comparison.

One is a player whose measurables jump out at you and can be a much better player IF your projection for him turns out to be true.

The other is a player whose tape shows utter consistency on a high level and is as close to plug-and-play as you can get.

So which do you prefer? Higher projected top-end? Or an immediate return on investment?

Kansas City Star - Draft Series

Morgan Moses, 6-6, 314, Virginia...Three-year starter. Is 21 years old. 35 3/8-inch arms... Size and length is ideal. Also has strong hands. ... Better pass blocker than run blocker

 

Moses versus Cyrus.....from what I read Cyrus is a road grader but has lacked consistency as a pass blocker. Moses seems to be a better pass blocker than he is as a run blocker.. 

 

GMan stated we were beat at the line of scrimmage versus the 49ers. Which guy best fits our scheme and how committed are we to running the ball w/o Cam doing the running?

 

I think we have all been too focused on our passing game and ignoring the fact that Cam was the reason our running game was as good as it was. 

 

I have so many questions and so few brain cells so help me out.

I like Moses myself, but I know Gettleman puts more faith in game tape than in measureables, so...

I like them both but Moses isn't 21, he's 23 I believe, Cyrus is like 2 years younger, he's still only 20, turns 21 in July I think.

 

If we somehow managed to snag both, Id put Moses at LT and Cyrus at RT.

 

Just keep in mind that Fluker was the 4th tackle taken last year and looked sluggish at the combine. He seemed to have the best year of the lot last year.

Reminds me a lot of Cyrus' situation. He could end up a better pro than Mathews or Lewan.

I thought the Clemson gif was gonna be one his blocks where he drives the guy back 15 yards. I think he does it 3 times in the 4th quarter. Amazing effort for a guy stuck on a perpetually losing team. I think he got a personal foul for taking the guy into sideline area, announcers called it harsh if I remember rightly. Check it out and add that gif if you can.
