PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Byron Murphy II exhibits a powerful and aggressive style of play. He is particularly effective in run defense, using his strength and explosiveness to disrupt plays. His agility, though above average, is not his standout trait, which makes him better suited for traditional 4-3 defensive schemes where he can focus on stopping the run and pushing the pocket.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
Near Elite (70-74)
A near-elite prospect is a player who is projected to become a significant contributor by their second year in the NFL. They have elite physical tools and athleticism and perform at a high level with ease and consistency. They have some weaknesses, but they are not significant. These players are typically high first-round picks, and they have the potential to be stars in the league.
