Wow. I am SHOCKED. This kid is a true junior who has shown flashes throughout his career of being a dominant DT but never really put it together until late this season when he had some really good games. I was damn sure that after his senior year he'd be a better prospect than Deandre Coleman, who just graduated. Moala certainly HAS HAD the frame of an NFL DT since he committed to Cal (6'2", 387lbs then, reportedly 315lbs now and in much better shape) and I had no doubts he'd be in the pros some day, just not now, I don't understand his decision to enter the draft especially after having an interview after the season where he talked about how excited he was for his senior year and graduating. I don't think he has the tape to warrant being a high pick. He's going to need to blow up his workouts. run-stuffing play at the goalline http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=9853070 - video of him as a pass rusher Draft Breakdown has started to put up some videos of him: I've realized that you can also get a good look at him in Coleman's tape, so here (he's often the DT next to Coleman):

He is going to be at the workouts today. I think he would be a great practice squad player
