2025 DE's where we at?

Cedric Johnson played 83 defensive snaps and has 1.0 sack.
Murphy played 353 defensive snaps and had 0.0 sacks.

To me, this is Murphy's make-or-break year. Gotta take the next step in your 3rd year, especially as a 1st rounder.
We had heard Murphy's elite ceiling is what elevated him to 1st round status, but he needed work to get there.


I like Cedric Johnson as the last DE on the depth chart to continue developing and someone maybe who can become part of the rotation in a year or two.
He takes one of the 5-6 DE spots.
I expect them to add one more DE.
If they re-sign Ossai, maybe that's when they might let Hubbard go and kinda plan for Ossai and Murphy to cover Hubbard's role in 2025 along with an early draft pick.
If they don't re-sign Ossai, I can see them keeping Hubbard for insurance and continuity while still drafting a guy early.

They had interest in Azeez Ojulari at the trade deadline. Trey, Ojulari, Ossai, Johnson, Murphy, and a top 100 pick could be a decent DE room.
