Oh so many people crack me up. Tobin made it very clear that they would go best player available and that is exactly what they did. Cue the Joey Porter Jr. comments but you do not know internally where they had each of those two player ranked on their big board. Porter likely was below Murphy on the Bengals board because he does not completely fit the scheme of Anarumo.
People complaining about this selection are not looking at the situation with real perspective. They really needed pass rush help at the end of the season as the starting DEs were playing far too many snaps. They have a single true high quality pass rusher on the edge in depth and that is Ossai. They just got the 17th ranked prospect with the 28th selection and people are complaining.
You do not pass on value selections to draft for the perceived needs of a fanbase.
