Not sure why everyone is freaking out about Murphy's preseason, he's young and learning the ropes from one of the best. He was going to be part of a rotation.
Relax, he will be ready when it's his turn.
I never expected Murphy to fall all the way to 28, hence why I never mentioned him prior to us drafting him.
To say he was a reach is a new one I had never heard. I heard getting MM at 28 was a steal prior to him just not standing out in PS.
I think you are correct Wedge. He will be ready when we need him to be.

Most players it takes a year or two to adapt to the NFL.
It is actually extremely rare for a rookie to come in and dominate like say Micah Parsons. Actually he might be the only Defender
to come in as a rookie and look like a legend. It takes time for everyone else and it is no surprise MM is not a dominant pass rusher
early, that wasn't expected by anyone when talking about him. He could grow into a dominant player though with his great upside.
