Yeah. As long as this defense gets to Jackson, Allen and Mahomes I'm allllll for it.
I was crazy back when being crazy really meant something.

Most thought we'd go DT or CB and we did. No real surprise...

So if Mayer drops to the 2nd, do they trade up for him? We still have a glaring weakness there.

I'm not mad at all, we need pass rusher's and this guys is very long and strong. Very talented young man, I would love to see a trade up in the mid 2nd maybe for a TE, I really like LaPorta.

Paul Dehner Jr. @pauldehnerjr
Murphy a perfect fit for the Lou Anarumo edge defender body type and noted as one of the highest effort players in the draft.

Those would be top of the list for Bengals.

He fills a need and was expected to go much higher. What's not to like?

But he wasnt. Consensus had him early second round I believe. Mayer was the right pick here. Then trade up for Myles if you like him that much.

Zac Taylor on getting Murphy at 28: "This wasn't a scenario we thought was going to play out for us, to be quite honest."
