The arguments you keep throwing out there are absurd. No team values a 6th round pick like they do a 1st or 2nd round pick. First and second round picks are seen as having more talent, more potential and are valued much higher. This is why these 1st and 2nd round picks get paid much better than a 6th round pick and why everyone wants these higher draft picks. Nobody is taking a chance on putting a 6th round pick on the 53 man roster until they see this guy do something on the field. Any team out there would be far more likely to pick up Myles Murphy than they would Andrei Iosivas if neither of them played a preseason game and both were waived to be put on the practice squad. If you believe otherwise, I cant help you

Someone takes a flier there. Guaranteed. There is literally no way he does not make the team. Jones either.
Meanwhile, no one claimed Irwin last year. No one claimed Taylor the year before. And Morgan had zero receptions last year. Those are the guys who don't get claimed.
Using your logic we couldnt put Trent Taylor on the practice squad because he was a 5th round pick so why wouldnt someone claim him? Trenton Irwin got in to Standford which is one of the top 5 Universities in the U.S. so someone would claim him too.
