DE4 - Jarvis Moss, Florida	Official Bio NFL.com Profile
Height: 6-6 Weight: 260 40 yard dash: 4.70 Grade: 92
Strengths: Jarvis Moss is a top pass rusher who should immediately contribute as a specialty rusher, much as Mark Anderson did for the Chicago Bears in 2006. He has the initial burst to run around many tackles and has the athleticism to change direction to avoid being blocked. He has the speed to make plays in the open field and run down quarterbacks. He keeps his pad level correct most of the time and is skilled at forcing fumbles. Weaknesses: Moss must ahead bulk and strength if he expects to be an every down DE in the 4-3 scheme. If he was to line up at that position full time immediately, he would be a liability in rushing defense, as he gets taken out of the play by strong offensive tackles. If he lets a blocker reach his body, he is taken out of the play. He needs to improve his technique, as he was often able to rely on his speed to get to the passer in college. Overall: Moss may be best served by playing OLB in a 3-4 scheme, especially early in his career. He should be an impact player immediately in rushing the passer but his long term success will depend on his ability to add bulk and become an every down player that can hold his own at the point of attack. He had health and behavior problems at Florida that must be accounted for before a team invests a high draft pick in him. Still, his size and speed are rare, and the ability to get to opposing quarterbacks is extremely valuable.
