That's not the point though, as the comparison was the two players right now.
Murphy just turned 23 years old this past Jan, Sample is 25.

I'm just making the argument Sample probably is about who he is at this point whereas Murphy is still young and has only been in the league two years.
Most players take next step in their 3rd year if ever, especially if they came in at 20 or 21 years old.


I'm just not seeing how Sample is better than Murphy right now.

To me, Sample is competing with Johnson for the last DE spot, assuming they draft another DE.
