Rookie Report: Seahawks DT Byron Murphy

Beautiful blend of power and violence. Explosive first step and strong hands. Plays with good contact balance. Extreme motor, hustles to the end of every play. Can create pressure from multiple positions. Terrific lateral burst that allows him to be patient at the snap when performing stunts. Powerful tackler -  very difficult for ball carriers to escape if he blows up the play in the backfield. Can start right away at 3-tech. I expect him to be the perfect anchor in Mike MacDonald’s defense.
