Ryan

Murphy

Murphy went from undrafted to late-round flier after running 4.48 with a 39-inch vertical and 10-foot-5 broad jump at Oregon State’s Pro Day. At 6'1/214, he profiles best at corner in Seattle’s Cover-3.

The Seahawks love using picks this late on athletic upside. Murphy was not on the draftnik radar, but stands 6-foot-1, 214 and ran 4.48 with a 39-inch vertical and 10-foot-5 broad jump at the Beavers’ Pro Day. Murphy played free safety at Oregon State, but we wouldn’t be surprised if Seattle tried to turn him into a press corner. He’s a developmental project.

Not a good way for Murphy to kick off Super Bowl week. Murphy was a seventh-round pick of the Seahawks last May, but didn’t make it past final cuts and was signed to the Broncos’ practice squad. Murphy and his brother were in a car when police busted them meeting up with the prostitute. Murphy was let go, but the Broncos decided to send him back to Denver.

Murphy was sent home during Super Bowl week for his involvement in a prostitution ring, though he wasn’t arrested. He joined Denver’s practice squad in November after being cut by the Seahawks at the end of training camp.
