Confidence isn't a problem for Texas' Trey Moore at the NFL Combine podium

Moore made Longhorn Nation proud with his honest and accurate self-assessment this morning in Indianapolis.

The big day is finally here! Players officially get weighed in, get their measurements taken, and meet with the media again before heading to the field this afternoon for on-field workouts.

Texas DE/LB Trey Moore was the first Longhorn to the podium this morning, and it's safe to say that he continues to carry himself with the same amount of confidence that he's had over the past two years in Austin.

Moore's ready to impress this weekend in Indy

When asked a question about what his most valuable quality or trait is as a player, he immediately responded with:

"I think my versatility is the No.1 thing for me that stands out, you know I can play a multitude of different positions. I'm a smart guy. I can set the edge, i cand rop back into coverage."

He's not lying either, as he played both SAM linebacker and defensive end for Texas over the past two seasons. Not only has he just "played" those positions, but he's been extremely productive at both.
Moore would sometimes rotate back and forth every few plays for former Longhorns DC and current Arizona Cardinals DL coach Pete Kwiatkowski, which is unheard of.

It'll be extremely interesting to see his measurables today as he's currently listed on Texas' roster at 6'3", 249 lbs. Arm length and explosion drills will be extremely important for him at the combine, as arm length typically determines whether or not a player will begin as a defensive lineman or linebacker at the NFL level when they're a "tweener" in college like Moore.

His explosiveness will also help his draft stock regardless, because NFL defensive coordinators value front-7 players who can move well in short areas and can explode with power from a two-point stance.
