Moala has something to prove

He’s on our watch list for sure

While fans and coaches may have been fully aware that it would take time for Moala to develop and be ready to take over as a starter on the defensive line, moving up in the second round to select him suggests a strong expectation that he will be a starting caliber talent.  Unfortunately, Moala not only failed to show starting level talent, he failed to even give fans confidence that he made meaningful strides.  He appeared in only 10 games in 2009, made 17 tackles, and was inactive in each of the Colts three post-season contests.

John Oehser reported on CBS Rapid Reports that Moala recently said “I struggled. It was a difficult transition for me. I tried my best, but it just didn’t go the way I wanted,” when he was approached about his development last season at this years organized team activities.  While it is encouraging that Moala is aware that his progress was unacceptable, his future with the Colts could be on the line this summer.

I think that assment is a little harsh, but the overall tone is good.
