Moreau had his best season at UCLA in 2014 when he was a second team all-Pac-12 selection. He missed almost all of 2015 due to a lisfranc injury in his foot.
The Redskins are getting a steal at the 81st pick because Moreau slipped in the draft due to a torn pectoral injury that required surgery at UCLA’s Pro Day last month.
Moreau has some upside potential because he is so darn fast. He’s a former running back who has only been playing defense for the past four seasons.
Congratulations, Fabian!
Go Bruins!
