8. David Moore-Offensive Line, Grambling State

Grambling State is no stranger to putting players in the NFL; over the last five decades, the Tigers have put over 250 players in the pros. Offensive lineman David Moore could be the next in a line of Grambling players to make an NFL roster.

One aspect of Moore’s game that allows him to make a roster is his versatility. Moore can play either left or right guard and center. Moore is an agile athlete with solid feet in addition to possessing incredible strength.

Moore has already made waves in the draft process. The Arkansas native made waves during the senior bowl. Moore was named practice player of the week. Moore was named one of the outstanding linemen during the practice week.

Scouts are enamored with Moore’s athleticism and potential upside. Moore weighs between 320 and 350 pounds. The All-SWAC lineman has elite athletic tools but played against defensive linemen who could not move him because of his size.

Moore’s measurables are essential to the process. His height has been listed from 5-foot-10 to 6-foot-3. However, he has an aggressive disposition and room to grow. That could put him on a roster to develop into a full-time starter.
