Strengths: Moss is a big firm, powerful running back that is very determined to get up the field quickly. His lower body is compact and can run through tackles. He has an unexpected burst while in space and is runs brutal below pad level. As a big back, Moss has surprising nimble feet and is a potent runner. At the point of contact, he is always looking to fight for extra yardage, bouncing off the hits and remaining impartial.  Rarely does he get knocked back, but typically falling forward at the end of the run. He can contemplate running lanes with a good vision of the field. He does catch the good out of the backfield and provides proper pass protection before leaking out.​

Weaknesses: Moss was a workhorse at Utah as he had over 700 carries in his career, much wear and tear on his body. Disappointing 40-time at the 2020 NFL combine, home-run speed to the finish line on long horizontal runs will be questioned. He tends to bounce his runs outsides, which causes run with loss yardage. He has limited athleticism, hips not that fluid, and will not shake a defender in open space. As a pass protector, he fills but does not use his body to knock the rusher off course. He has just average hands that are not soft, which caused natural drops.

Draft Grade: 6.34

Draft Projection: 2nd - 3rd round

NFL Comparison: Marion Barber
