I see Murray at 5’10” 194 and Young at 6’  194 when I Google it. I’m sure Young is really 5’11” and some change.

Maybe in college. 

Murray played 2021 at around 207 pounds. It was not insignificant for someone who stands only 5-foot-10. However, it looks like he might be entering the summer closer to 215 pounds. So long as it doesn’t hinder his speed and agility, Murray looks tough to bring down.

Yeah he kind of does. It’s more sudden quickness/twitchiness like Russ Wilson. I’m not not sure he can take the hits from NFL players that comes with that style of play though. 

If hes shown that, I may change my mind a little.....I dont want murray either, but he is a compacted 194 with eel skin.

If you take out the STers, the NFL is 200 LB and up league. yes there are rare expectations, smitty was one *eariler in his career until age got him while each of his calfs were still 55 lbs each.  Plus the NFL has been protecting QBs more with the BS calls, but in my book young needs much more for me to overlook reality...

That’s not really a fair comparison then. Young could bulk up the same after a few years in the league.

I think this is a scenario where the obvious easy layup is right in front of you and everyone will overthink it and convince themselves to take one of the other guys. I’d be happy with Stroud but if we get #1 please don’t overthink this. Get Young

  • He is able to evade pressure and get the ball out quickly. Ran a 4.4 40 at his pro-day. Has amazing mobility - only equaled in modern times by Mike Vick. Truly exceptional

Do we actually have any data on size/injury prevalence in the NFL? Cam was 6'5" 245lbs and his career was still cut short by injuries that occured mostly in the pocket. Meanwhile Drew Breese played till he was 40.

 

Football is a dangerous sport, injury is a risk no matter how big of a guy we trot out there. I want the guy who can make fast decisions and make impossible throws.

      Honestly, I have only one pair of white shoes (only because they were new and like $4 from the Goodwill) other than my easily-cleaned Crocs. A man's got to think ahead.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      By shaq · Posted

      Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
