Not to pile on Murphy, but NO.  27 Hurries+Sacks in 355 pass rush snaps.
Mykel Williams 20 hurries+sacks in 250 pass rush snaps.
Sawyer: 44/349
Carter: 56/355.
Peirce: 51/257.
Last year Laiatu Latu: 51 hurries/sacks in 304.
2023: Will Anderson: 56/382.

Obviously sack are better than hurries, run defense is also a thing, and potential counts.

Honestly, I'd like to see them fatten up Murphy to 310 and put him inside. I think he would still be quick enough to create something inside.

The thing with Murphy is that his first move is great, but then in pursuit it's like he's running in a swamp of molasses. I'm not sure that "fattening him up" is going to remedy that situation any. Honestly, I think that he was just a bad pick and the Bengals likely should have answered the phone for a trade back at that point.

Part of the problem is the Eagles success with UGA players. The NFL is a trend following league, unfortunately. As for IOL, I am liking the kid out of LSU Emory Jones RT/G. He is looking the part.
