NFL Draft Profile: Le’Veon Moss
Position: Running Back | School: Texas A&M | Class: Senior
Height: 5'11" | Weight: 210 lbs | Archetype: Power / 3-Down Back
College Career Summary
Le'Veon Moss concludes a resilient career at Texas A&M characterized by flashes of elite SEC production hampered by untimely injuries. After a promising junior year, Moss entered the 2025 season as the Aggies' undisputed lead back. He began the campaign with a violent, downhill efficiency that made him one of the conference's most feared runners, highlighted by a dominant 139-yard performance against Auburn.
However, his season was derailed by a significant ankle injury suffered during the October 11th matchup against Florida. Moss missed the final six games of the regular season, watching from the sidelines as Rueben Owens II took over the primary duties. He made a courageous return for the College Football Playoff First Round against Miami, but re-aggravated the injury in the third quarter. Despite the medical hurdles, his tape shows a "pro-ready" back with a violent finishing style and exceptional vision in gap-blocking schemes.

Rushing: 77 carries, 404 Yds, 6 TD (5.2 avg)

Ball Security: Elite. Zero fumbles in the 2025 season; protects the ball well in traffic.
Vision: Excellent. Reads the flow of the defense and anticipates the hole opening.
Contact Balance: High-end. Low center of gravity allows him to bounce off arm tackles.

Pass Block: Pro-ready. Willing to step up and strike blitzing linebackers.
Athleticism (.20) — Grade: 88/100

NFL Scouting Report
Strengths: Violent, "finishing" running style; elite-level vision and patience; pro-ready pass protection; high-floor reliability as an interior runner.
Weaknesses: Serious medical history (ACL/MCL/Ankle); lacks elite breakaway speed; runs with a high pad level at times, exposing himself to big hits.
Scheme Fit: Ideal for a Downhill Power or Gap-blocking system (e.g., Steelers, Browns, Titans).
NFL Comparison: Isiah Pacheco / Chris Carson.
Scout's Final Word
"Le'Veon Moss is a classic 'weight-room' runner who brings a physical identity to an offense. While his medical folder will be the most scrutinized part of his draft process, his tape against Auburn and Arkansas is that of a starting NFL running back. If he clears medicals, he's a potential steal for a team needing a physical presence. Projected: Round 4–5."
