membengal Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 Definite faller from mocks. Fit my being okay with DE/Edge if it was a faller. Just hard with Mayer right there. Still, I won't be complaining. Hopefully TJ doesn't tomorrow either since I think this was what he wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripes Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 I am so clueless about this year's prospects that I don't even know who this is, but that's no complaint. I know nothing, and the pass rush definitely needed help. Cool beans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
membengal Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 Classic LouA DE/Edge. Literally the right size speed and effort kinda guy. Hopefully getting with Trey and Sam helps him unlock his talent fully, because I felt like he left a lot of meat on the bone for Clemson.

So, a faller - I don't know that they expected to have the option of taking him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShulaSteakhouse Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 Pass rush was a huge need, just not real high on Murphy, but not sure there was a better option in the draft with his ceiling. Hoping for Kuntz and/or Whyle at TE later, and a legit RT in 2nd maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And will be with tremendous mentors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They literally could not get to the podium fast enough. We will see if they are right but clearly they were amazed he was still there.

COB Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 We needed more pressure on qbs, hopefully he’ll come through. I’m also very glad we didn’t end up with Joey porter’s kid. Nothing against the kid, but it would have been a big ask for us to all forget all the cheap shit his dad pulled all those years on the Steelers.

Stripes Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 It's a nice answer to the Bills' defensive line rotation, and it should continue to promote Lou's love for versatility. All of the edge players on this roster are good in different ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GapControl Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 Myles Murphy - 6’5, 275 40 time : 4.71 1st Round Lindy’s Sports Annuals Strengths: Former top-five recruit largely lived up to expectations as a dominant end with great traits, earned freshman all America honors in 2020 while starting six games as a true freshman and locked down the starting job full-time as a junior. failed to draw all America honors or put up elite numbers as a sack artist. but tools have helped him remain a consensus top 10 target. would be a surprise if he falls on draft night giving the boxes he checks and his complete game strengths, borderline perfect build for a defensive end enormous and Long limbed with perimeter size to set The edge. gets out of stance well and has burst to threaten offensive tackles around the arc. Workmanlike hands are powerful and accurate, strong, run defender with an ideal anchor for holding ground and redirecting ball carriers, good engine to run down plays and win with effort. experience with both a hand down and standing up. easy power, handles to step up and weight class easy strider, feel for playing through contact and asserting his physicality jumps off the tape. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
