Myles Murphy Taken By Bengals Late In First Round
2 years agoThe Cincinnati Bengals selected University of Clemson edge rusher Myles Murphy with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft on Thursday night. Murphy should immediately contribute on the defensive side of the ball for the Bengals in his rookie year, and he could end up being a steal in this draft. The 21-year-old measures in at 6-foot-5, 268 pounds, which is big for an edge rusher. He makes up for being oversized at the position by having great speed and length, which allows him to contribute as both a pass-rusher and run-stopper. There aren't many holes in his game after leading the Tigers in both sacks and tackles for loss in each of the last three years. Murphy could quickly become an option for fantasy managers in IDP formats.
