Draft Profile: Bio
Trey Moore, a 6'2", 250-pound outside linebacker and edge rusher, was born on August 15, 2002, in Spring Branch, Texas. He attended Smithson Valley High School, where he earned District 27-6A Defensive Player of the Year honors as a senior. Moore's high school career culminated with impressive stats: 70 tackles, 19 tackles for loss, 8 sacks, and 3 blocked kicks in his final season.Moore began his college career at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) in 2021. After a redshirt freshman year with limited playing time, he exploded onto the scene in 2022, breaking the school's single-season record for tackles for loss with 18. His sophomore campaign included 59 total tackles, 8 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles, earning him Freshman All-American honors from multiple publications. Moore's junior year in 2023 was even more impressive, as he set a new UTSA record with 14 sacks and was named the American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year.
Following his standout performances at UTSA, Moore transferred to the University of Texas for the 2024 season. His college career stats to date include 105 total tackles, 35.5 tackles for loss, 22 sacks, 3 forced fumbles, and 1 interception across 28 games. Moore's transfer to Texas marks a significant step up in competition, as he moves from the Group of Five to the Power Five level, joining one of college football's most storied programs.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Exhibits elite bend and ankle flexion when turning the corner, allowing for consistent pressure on the quarterback
- Possesses an explosive first step and quick get-off, routinely beating tackles to their set point
- Demonstrates excellent stack-and-shed ability against the run, using strong hands to disengage from blockers
- Shows good lateral agility and change of direction skills, allowing him to be effective in zone coverage drops
- High-motor player with relentless pursuit; consistently plays through the whistle and chases plays from behind
- Displays advanced hand usage in pass rush, employing a variety of moves including rip, swim, and bull rush techniques
- Exhibits good football IQ and play recognition, rarely biting on misdirection or play-action
- Proven production as a turnover creator, with a knack for strip-sacks and ball-hawking ability in coverage
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Slightly undersized for an NFL edge rusher, may struggle against larger offensive linemen
- Run defense, while solid, isn't as dominant as his pass-rushing ability
- Limited experience against top-tier competition, with most production coming at the Group of Five level
- May need to expand his pass-rush move repertoire to succeed consistently in the NFL
- Could improve hand usage when engaging blockers to better shed and disengage
Scouting Report: Summary
Moore projects as a high-upside edge rusher in the NFL, with the potential to make an immediate impact as a situational pass rusher. His elite pass-rushing productivity and athleticism will appeal to teams running aggressive 3-4 or 4-3 defensive schemes. Moore's ability to drop into coverage adds versatility that defensive coordinators will value.His transition to SEC competition at Texas will be crucial in evaluating his NFL readiness. If Moore can replicate his production against top-tier offensive linemen, he could solidify himself as a potential first-round selection. Teams will be watching closely to see how he performs against the run and whether he can maintain his disruptive presence in the backfield.
Moore's combination of production, athleticism, and room for growth makes him an intriguing prospect. His success at the next level will likely hinge on his ability to refine his technique and adapt to the increased physicality of NFL offensive linemen. With continued development, Moore has the tools to become a impactful edge defender at the professional level.
