Yep, too early to question the Murphy pick. Now drafting DaWand Jones in the 3rd might of been a good move, but I also really like
Jordan Battle. Murphy will take a bit of time, but he could be a great one on down the road with his strength and athleticism. He has
things to work on without question but most Draft picks aren't ready right off the bat anyways. Don't care if they are #1 overall.
MM was supposed to be taken in the mid to late teens in every mock I was seeing before the Draft and we needed another End for
depth in stopping the run and a future stud pass rusher. MM could still be this, it is ignorant to think otherwise.
