Bills sign Trent Murphy


Recommended Posts

Scouting Report: He’s a blue collar player, with a good motor. Murphy is relentless in pursuit. What he lacks in athleticism he makes up for in effort. He brings his lunch pail to work everyday. He’s a smart player that is the 1st guy in and the last to leave.

I'm confused as to why people think this means Hughes is out? 

 

I think it because with Zo switching back to Defensive End they currently have 7 or 8 Defensive Ends on the Roster.   With Murphy getting 7million I think it makes Hughes expendable at 10.4.  But you never really know do you?

Didn't he have a PED suspension?  Or am I thinking of someone else?

 

 

We're gonna rip on a guy for having a pedicure, bandit?   Please, it's 2018.

 

kidding aside, I do hope you are thinking about someone else, but even if it is the case I am glad this front office is not painting itself into any corners with a company line.

 

Hard for some to believe, but you can still be a good football player and even a good guy even if you have some issues.

Way to much money for Murphy.Between him and Kyle..that's 13 million.Not good.

 

Like I said, this likely means someone else is on their way out. 


There were rumours recently we were trying to trade Shaq Lawson. My guess is his gone in a day or two.

got caught with PED's in the past.....missed entire last season due to injury....boy am i excited (sarcasm)

My son, a big Redskins fan, just sent me a message: "He's a bum and is always getting busted for steroids or getting injured."  I assume Beane knows what he's doing on this one. 

 

Perhaps the Bills have decided to not spend money on what's left of the FA quarterback crop and will draft two quarterbacks, another Redskins thing.  To those who say it will take two first round picks to move way up, why not have one of them be next year's first?

Murphy is 1 nice thing, who is the other you are talking about?  It cant be mr. invisible until I get a stupid penalty JH55 can it?

 

Yep, the same guy who had 6 total penalties last season. And Shaq while we're at it. We need to go into the season with more than 1 or 2 serviceable DEs. 3 is more than 2.

 

It's not rocket surgery.

Our Linebacker group still looks terribly ugly.

It's hard to believe that LB hasn't become a bigger priority over the last two offseasons, considering Sean McDermott's history as a Defensive Coordinator.

I think Mc'Beans identified LBs in the draft they really like, and thats why they have not gone after FA's

This sounds like a Bryce Paup type signing.

 

Yes, I think that's a good comparison.   He can slide into an OLB role or move up and rush from DE.    Good positional flexibility...

Besides the 6 penalties, what else did he do?  Just out of curiosity.

He has a lot of personality too.     He could be the King of Buffalo if he has success on the field...
