July 6th article out of bay area speculating Murphy being on trade block http://www.csnbayare...298&feedID=2801

From Raiders top beat writer today http://www.csnbayare...791&feedID=2539

I posted these PFF stats in the other murphy thread, figured i'd put them here for more exposure.

Heres his Profootball focus stats.

09 season, played 736 snaps(most of any receiver on team),92 Targets, 34 receptions,521 total yards, 136 yards after catch, 4 td's, 7 drops, caused 4 missed tackles and 0 fumbles.

10 played 737 snaps(2nd by about 40 snaps to Darius Heyward Bay),74 targets, 41 receptions, 609 total yards, 227 yards after catch,2 tds, 3 drops,caused 4 missed tackles and had 2 fumbles.

11 played 258 snaps (4th most at receiver) 34 targets, 15 receptions,241 total yards,87 yards after catch,0 td's, 2 drops, caused 2 missed tackles and 0 fumbles.

He was the number 1 receiver his rookie year as he was targeted twice as much as anyone else and was most productive as he led all receivers in yards and td's.

His sophmore year was more of the same, depsite getting slightly less snaps than Heyward Bay..still got more targets,receptions and yards than any other wideout on the team and unbelievably his 2 td's tied for first.

and looks like he missed the first 5 weeks of last year.

*all this being said the #1 pass catcher on the team in 09 and 10 was Zach Miller the tight end. Murphy was just the best wideout on the Raiders for those 2 years.

**Jamarcus and Gradkowski were the qb's in 09 and then Jason Campbell and Gradkowski in 2010 for the raiders.

Videos and other info is encouraged in this thread. Add what you have for all to see without having to read 100 pages.

Here's his rushing TD. His stumble isn't pretty, but he got the job done. I think I'm most excited for him as a run blocker than anything else.

Edit: Just did some reading on Murphy and apparently his recent injuries have been a sports hernia he had to have surgery on that kept him out of TC and the first 5 games of 2011, a pulled groin that made him miss a couple games later in the season, and then a hamstring that kept him out of OTAs.

Sounds like a series of freak accidents to me. I'd much rather have that than a Jeff Otah type chronic condition.

Cam is going to bring out the best in this man. Not calling Superbowl or 1000 yards but if he can stay healthy, and I believe he can, he will be at least better than Nannee.

Hope so. I believe Sir Purr was covering Nanee in practice and shutting him down.

In my expert "you tube film critique"

I say this dude can ball... Runs good routes, attacks the ball in the air, blocks very very well, and has a knack for running the end around.

This was a highlight video, and I get that... But he looks pretty darned Legit.

Looks like he might have some trouble making the first guy miss, but he's a solid route runner with above average speed for his frame and can make some decent catches. Not sure what else he'll bring but it's a good start.

      Their use of the phrase questionable QB situation fits perfectly. He is stuck, for the moment at least, in a situation with Bryce that he can't really get out of. There have been improvements for Young, but he hasn't been a world changer. He had horrible coaching first year and was saddled with a broken down remnant of what had been an afterthought team anyway. There's one year left to keep him on the cheap with the idea that if he cranks out a great season, we've got first dibs on him for the next. If he tanks out, then off to free agency Young goes to either a QB whisperer-type situation or becomes a fairly battle tested back up QB. And we get something to add into our compensatory picks formulation. This is a make or break year for Young, but not for Morgan or Canales.

      If they lose the ECF in wimpy fashion, like anything less than a Game 7, its time to can Rod.

      Do you people really give no credence to the fact that Carolina’s went almost two weeks between games while Montreal played an intense seven game series that just ended Monday? That break was too much to be ready to go, and it showed.   The Canes pressed in the first, likely from overzealousness to prove the layoff wasn’t too much. once the Canes settled into their game without pressing, the game was much tighter. Every year, posts in the Panthers forum question how little the starters play in the preseason? Why is that? Because we all know not going at game speed against an opponent can lead to a slow start when the games turn real. Even with prior ECF disappointments, I’m going to hope last night was more akin to starters not playing in the preseason.
