Toby Moore – OL/DL

Scouting Report

Toby is the dominant type run blocker who knocks defensive lineman back where they came from. His size and athleticism are what we like to see at the major level of competition. Shows good flexibility in a three-point stance; comes off the ball with very good initial quickness and explosion. Plays with a flat back and good pad level when drive blocking; blocks with a wide base and the leg drive to get movement off the line of scrimmage. This guy has the agility to handle inside quickness and change of direction moves. Demonstrates very good pull / trap mechanics; can get to the edge, seal and play on his feet well in space. When he locks up with linebackers it usually results in a pancake as his excellent upper body playing strength becomes evident. We also like his effort to finish and look for a second block downfield. Displays good short set and initial punch skill; has good arm length and quick hands. Works to relocate and extend while showing he can adjust to alternate inside moves. We see the flexibility to bend and slide his feet to the deep-set point. His initial quick set move is good; can bend, slide his feet and play flat footed to the deep-set point; shows quick hands and extension; reacts to edge rushers, keeping them off the QB; does a good job taking on the bull rush. This prospect shows a bit of a mean streak and will punish defenders when the opportunity presents itself. His playing strength will win out when he clamps down on defenders. This is a tough aggressive guy who will dominate and finish blocks in a punishing fashion. Toby has the frame to put on additional weight. As this occurs, he should see early playing time which will allow him to polish his skills, leading to a very long and productive career at the major level of competition.
