Scouting Report: Strengths
- Technician as a pass protector, playing with a wide base and very good balance. Murphy has heavy hands, but more impressively, Murphy is consistent with his kick slide and shows impressive lateral movement.
- Fundamentally sound and understands blocking angles, using body positioning to his advantage. Disciplined awareness and good intelligence.
- Takes much more pride in the run game, where he plays through the whistle with tremendous physicality.
- Cerebral player, quick to react to twists and stunts up front, and he shows an excellent understanding of angles when moving out as a run blocker.
- Uses his hands well, with good hand placement to maximize his powerful punch. Murphy shows impressive coordination between his upper and lower body when moving in pass protection.
- Has the agility, technique, and size to contribute early in his professional career. Quick, active hands to latch on to defenders.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Will punch at smaller defenders instead of latching on and is more of a mauler than mover in the running game. Can improve maintaining outside leverage when doubling the nose. Ducks his head and gets too upright, causing him to fall off second-level blocks.
- Plays with poor balance, doing too much reaching and lunging when his initial punch is ineffective. Trying to mirror against quickness will be a problem for him.
- Tends to slip off blocks when going against bigger linemen, and Murphy too often finishes plays on the ground.
