Offensive Tackle
No. 71
Tampa
"Mooring has been a swingman offensive lineman for the past three years, able to play any of the positions. He saw a lot of preseason action at right tackle in Winston Hill's absence, and has received a lot of tutoring from Hill and has the ability to become a fine blocker. He has played at center and right guard when injuries sidelined the regulars.
John hits with impact and knocks people down. He has been used as the extra lineman on goal line defenses and blocked a punt in 1971 against Dallas.
Drafted No. 2 in '71, Mooring majored in physical education. He was on track team in high school, a weight man with the shot and discuss. He's done summer work as a signal man for the Missouri-Pacific Railroad. His hometown is Falfurrias, Texas."
