The young Moss was an athletic sensation -- more so than any other player I've ever seen in the NFL by far.



* Speed (as fast as anyone)

* Size (6'5" with an incredible wing-span)

* Body control (best I've ever seen - it made his "strike-zone" huge)



* Hands (Incredible hands. T. O. drops routine short passes - when Moss dropped anything it was almost always from worrying about getting hit)

* Leaping ability

* Endurance (Most guys would be gassed by the 2nd quarter from all the deep vertical routes he ran)


Sure - he didn't have the body type to work underneath and go over the middle ... but he would draw more double teams near the goal-line than any WR in history - and he almost certainly drew more 40+ yard pass interference calls than any wideout ever .. and you don't see those on his stat sheets.
