Myles Murphy is a Bum

Of course we aren't letting them go. They are here next year and we need to add another End to the fold to go along with 
Murphy for the future, especially if Ossai continues to be hurt or has just disappeared like it seems.

Damn rights. I don't mind moving Murphy to the inside on passing downs in order to get the most pass rushers on the field 
but he is still an Edge rusher first and foremost. We need to add a pure 3-tech that can collapse the pocket. BJ Hill is good, 
but he isn't a Geno Atkins either which is what we need and Zach Carter isn't either like we were all hoping.

We will see after next season, still love Hubbard but if Murphy and another Edge emerge we might let Hubbard go somewhere 
else once his contract is up.

We aren't we would of gave Trey more than just a one year extension after this season if we were.

DJ Reader hasn't shown much fall off this year though and is on the last year of his deal and we do not have a replacement 
on the roster. I expect him to be given at least a 1 year extension, it would be the smart thing to do.
