An odd combination...
No DTs yet though... this is going to annoy some folks here. There were so many loud, irritated voices... so, so many... (reaches for Tylenol).

I'm one of them. I thought we needed at least two.
He is a phonebooth mauler. You could time his 3-cone with a sundial. IMO, he looks like another Lester Cotton who will compete only at RG, but I'd guess they want more mobile IOL for the wide zone at all three spots. He is about as far from the Brewer or Connor archetype as one could get.
… still waiting for my phone to ring …

Apparently there are three Isaiah Johnson corners. The one from Syracuse by way of Dartmouth we're signing. Another one who is still at AZ State, and another in the UFL, playing for the DC Defenders and was a 2019 4th round Raiders pick out of UHouston.

Best of luck to the young man but he does not fit the wide zone at all, but especially at center. He is an immobile phonebooth mauler it seems to me.

I didn't... and don't.
So many teams rotate their Tackles. We didn't because we didn't have any, and this year, we have 6 credible NFL DTs. Yes, only Sieler is a plus player, but I think Tart and Jones are both better than average.
I've been pooh poohing the idea of drafting DTs for months... because we have 6 solid vets and we had bigger needs.
Next year, we draft a DT.

Well... we knew there'd be one or two! Lol
Grayson Murphy
STRENGTHS: Above-average first-step quickness to keep blockers on their toes … uses natural leverage to dip inside and shoot gaps (UCLA would stand him up and
blitz over the A-gap) … loose-hipped mover for quick recoveries to get back on track once knocked off his path … flashes twitch in his hands to defeat the hands of the
tackle (uses a cross chop Euro as his go-to move) … slams his hands into blockers with an upward motion to create movement … has enough power in his upper body
to force his way through the outside shoulder of tackles once he plants the corner … his effort pops on each game tape, and he has the same dependable character as
his brother … durable and played in every game the past three seasons with steady production each year.
WEAKNESSES: Undersized frame with T-rex arms and limited growth potential … caught in between positions and won’t be a fit for every NFL scheme … average
lower-body strength … average stack-and-shed skills and struggles to break free once engulfed and locked up by blockers … looks great against the run on some reps
because of his hustle but can be sealed and washed too easily, disappearing from his gap … urgency to make tackles will leave him off balance as a finisher … rarely
asked to drop and make plays in coverage on tape … charged with 26 penalties over the past four seasons, including a career-high nine flags in 2023 … seldomly used
on kick or punt coverages at UCLA.
SUMMARY: A two-year starter at UCLA, Murphy was an outside edge rusher in former defensive coordinator D’Anton Lynn’s scheme, splitting his time standing up
and rushing with his hand on the ground. Despite not being an official starter in 2023, he played starter-level snaps and combined for 108 pressures over his two
seasons with the Bruins, which ranked third (behind Bralen Trice and Laiatu Latu) in the FBS over that span. Despite not rece iving a combine invite like his twin
brother, Grayson delivered the better 40-yard dash and three-cone times at UCLA’s pro day, and there is no question about the juice he plays with on film. He can pin
his ears back and create pressure from different angles, but the main issue will be his struggles in the run game. Overall, Murphy has the compact size of a
linebacker, but the athletic urgency and active hands of a pass rusher, which will earn him the “tweener” label from NFL teams. He projects as a “DPR”
(designated pass rusher) who will need the right situation to make an NFL roster.

With a beard like that he otta be good no?
We didn't need it. In free agency we signed Jones, and Tart can back Jones up.
Daryl does not like Tua. Or McDaniel. Or happiness.
