Kevin Weidl from ESPN on Morgan Moses

Detriot Lions blogger:

"Morgan Moses looks the next in line of Virginia Cavalier offensive tackles who will get a left tackle gig in the NFL.... Absolutely massive player in every sense of the description…Light feet and quick to change directions …Immovable anchor when he sets feet... Destructive down blocker in the run game... a pass blocking specialist... A pass blocker with the skills of Moses has a lot of value. ... His impressive pass protection skills should make him a long-term starter in the league"

"Morgan Moses has emerged as nothing less than a Top Shelf Tackle Talent....Exceptional agility. Tremendous Fluidity... Awesome Paw Power...terrific Field Vision... Cerebrally, he's extremely impressive, exhibiting extraordinary Processing Speed and an outstanding command of Blocking Schemes.... Moses commands an utterly deadly combination of Length, Agility, and Processing Speed. He enjoyed success against elite Pass Rush Talent on several occasions this past Campaign, and it wasn't luck: He has the Potential to Dominate"

"The Cavaliers have produced yet another NFL-caliber offensive line prospect in Moses. With ideal height, length and footwork, he has a great opportunity to latch on as a left tackle for many years... Quick feet and good change of direction.... Good lateral agility... Good awareness and ability to read the rush.... Well-balanced in his skills, no glaring weaknesses as a run blocker or pass protector."

"Moses has the size, speed, and strength that every NFL coach is trying to find in an OT... Ideal NFL size... Long, powerful arms...Fluid movement/footwork...Great burst off the line...Impressive first step...Strong punch... he should develop into a fine NFL OT."

Dolphins blogger:

"Moses is as big as a house... physically imposing...Size wise, he has everything needed to play the Tackle position. Height, long arms, strength...Versatility off the charts. Has played Left Tackle, Right Tackle, and Right Guard in college....Four years’ experience having started as a Freshman gives him plenty of reps, similar to Zack Martin of Notre Dame.... He has all the physical traits needed, with a little refinement and decent talent around him on the offensive line, he could plug and play right away in 2014 and help upgrade a historically dismal 2013 performance from Miami’s Oline."

"NFL Comparison: Cordy Glenn, LT, Buffalo Bills. Moses is a huge player with a hulking body... Boasts an octopus-like seven-foot wingspan... Described by Senior Bowl director Phil Savage as "The Great Wall of China" and the "Rock of Gibraltar.".... Faced off against a true outside speed-rush threat in Auburn's Dee Ford during Senior Bowl practices and more than held his own. ... Very strong and naturally fluid....Averaged eight knockdowns per game through the 2013 season.... Morgan Moses is poised to be selected in the top of the 2014 NFL draft for two reasons. They so happen to be the two categories where Moses truly shines—size and feet, two attributes that cannot be taught.... no evaluator can deny that he is a prospect with tremendous upside. Moses looks like he will be able to carry up to 340 or 345 pounds without losing the finesse and glide that defined his game through college. ... Moses is a 330-pound dancing bear with a greater wingspan than star NBA power forward Kevin Love. Those sorts of measurables don't last on the board too long in most cases."

Giants blogger:

"One of the hallmarks of the successful Giants teams of the Tom Coughlin era was a strong, consistent offensive line... Moses, a 6-6, 325-pound physical behemoth, has the makings of a plus tackle...someone who can step in and immediately start at the NFL level.

For a player of his size, Moses is especially athletic, and he used that athleticism to mold himself into one of the best run blockers in the country.

Watching his film, one can’t help but be impressed with his execution and proficiency in gap-down-backer blocking. That is, to say, Moses hits his defensive lineman and takes him out of the play, then immediately looks downfield to make a block at the next level."

James Hurst is going to be a STEAL in this draft.

*edited to add that was my 100th post and I wanted to save it for something I felt strongly about/in. I think James Hurst will be a 10 year all pro tackle.

Couldn't agree more with that statement. If I were to compare Hurst to someone it would be Gross. Hardworking solid guy not gonna wow you with athleticism or raw strength, however has great technique & just a all around Solid player. I'll take Moses, Lee, or Verrett in the 1st & probably try for Hurst in the 4th.
