Round 3 – Utah RB Zack Moss
Moss is one of the most successful running backs the Utah Utes have ever seen come through their program. In 2019, Moss set career franchise records for carries, rushing yards, 100-yard rushing games, rushing touchdowns, and total touchdowns. His performance in the 2019 season alone earned him PAC 12 Offensive Player of the Year honors.
The lack of a pro day and medical visits with teams to check out his previously injured knee could hurt him in the pre-draft process. He didn’t run fast at the combine so that could certainly hurt him, but his game isn’t exactly about speed either. He has vision, contact balance, elusiveness and power. He’s often been compared to Marshawn Lynch because of his wild running style.
The Chiefs’ brass met with Moss in a formal interview at the combine. Moss described the meeting as “really good.”
