I think Murphy is the first corner off the board because he has the highest floor. He is a technically sound player, and even though he did not test well in terms of measurable, his experience and game tape will trump everything else. Because of the demand for Edge rushers, I think Ferrell will be a late teen pick or at worst be chosen by the early 20s.
I think Williams is the guy to fall because of the tackling questions and some immaturity.
There is an interesting article on AP about Gil Brandt’s draft boards and how consistent they have been in him being able to call 80% of the first round rather accurately.
Two names he has in “no man’s land” this year as potential 1st round droppers are Montez Sweat (medical) and Rashan Gary (scheme fit/production questions).
If either of these two get near #29, Veach best be willing to jump at that opportunity.
I’ll admit I had not paid much attention to Gary this off-season, thinking he’d be untouchable - but holy hell if he slides somewhat.....
His pursuit is amazing, and his gap discipline is impressive. He’d be one hell of a chess piece for Daly’s rotation with his versatility.
