A closer look at second-round pick Trent Murphy

here is a good break down of his play vs the pass and the run plus the 3 olb defense that could be in play
You know Dad, I've been wondering if the thinking on this guy is based on his versatility. I'm hoping that he is the reason that they didn't directly draft Fletcher's replacement. Question to you..... With his size and speed, Can he play inside LB?

Thanks, Well, if he does play inside and does so competently, then I'll go on record and say that someone in our front office is a genius and Washington got the steal of the draft. We will see.

i dont have an issue if he is a quality BU to either rak or kerrigan . he should get a couple 100 snaps

it also appears that if he is healthy robinson will be the starting ILB next to riley

scouting reports said he'd struggle in coverage but is good against the run. as a rookie i dont think they'd mess with his position.

The lack of explosion is why I was wary on this guy. But he does have good pass rushing moves. The nickel package is going to have Hatcher in it. So a 5 man rush would be the 3 LBs, Cofeld, and Hatcher. The 4 man rush would be the 3 Lb's and Hatcher. What this does is make Bowen expandable b/c he is making way too much money just for a run stopper.

I think there is no chance they are looking at Murphy inside.


I agree. His height alone makes him more suitable for outside. That spin move will make a few tackles nervous
