Analysis:
Morgan Moses arrived at UVA after a long wait coming out of college. After playing at RT the past few years, Moses was given his shot to play LT after Oday Aboushi graduated after the 2012 season. Morgan Moses is a dancing bear in every way possible, and while not showing elite athleticism in shorts, while show the speed necessary to play OT in the NFL during drills
Moses has had some concerns arise about possible motivation, but has seemed to show that he has moved past them this year. Came back to UVA dedicated and has maintained weight and played at a high level. Look for Moses to come off the board in the early to mid-part of Round 2.
