The veteran pass rusher looks to rebound from a sub-par 2018 campaign"

Opinion90 Players in 90 Days2019 Buffalo Bills scouting report: defensive end Trent MurphyNew Youth O. J. Simpson Jerseys ,5commentsThe veteran pass rusher looks to rebound from a sub-par 2018 campaignEDTThe modern NFL calls for a defense that can rush the passer and, frankly, the Buffalo Bills have not been very good at doing so over the last two years. In 2017, the team ranked 29th out of 32 NFL teams in total sacks, notching only 27 sacks on the season. In 2018, their total improved to 36 sacks on the year, but they still ranked 26th in the league in the category. The Bills have made multiple moves to improve the entire roster since head coach Sean McDermott and general manager Brandon Beane arrived, but they haven’t truly added an elite pass-rusher in that time, choosing instead to keep what they have on the roster. The one free agent addition they did spend big money on is the man we profile in today’s edition of “90 players in 90 days”—a converted outside linebacker who will try to perform better than he did during his first season in Buffalo.<hr class="p-entry-hr" id="EcFP5P">Name: Trent MurphyNumber: 93Position: DEHeight/Weight: 6’6” 260 lbs. Age: 28 (29 on 12/22/19)Experience/Draft: 6; selected in the second round (47 overall) of the 2014 NFL Draft by WashingtonCollege: StanfordAcquired: Signed with Bills as unrestricted free agent on 3/14/18<hr class="p-entry-hr" id="HrvuEj">Financial situation (per Spotrac): Murphy enters the second year of a three-year pact he signed last spring. The total value of the contract is $22.5 million, and for the 2019 season, Murphy carries the fifth-highest salary-cap hit among all Bills players at $8,706,250. If the team were to release Murphy, they would be on the hook for $6.5 million in dead money this year.2018 Recap: Murphy found himself in a literal timeshare with fellow defensive end Shaq Lawson last season, as the two men combined to play the same number of snaps (440; 43.39%) on defense. Murphy started ten of the 13 games in which he appeared, making 24 total tackles and four sacks on the year. He also deflected one pass O. J. Simpson Jerseys Stitched , forced two fumbles and recovered one, had five tackles for loss, and registered nine quarterback hits on the season. Positional outlook: Murphy once again will compete with Lawson for time across from Buffalo’s top rusher, veteran Jerry Hughes. The team also has Eli Harold, Mike Love, Eddie Yarbrough, and Darryl Johnson competing for space on the roster.2019 Offseason: Murphy has participated in all offseason activities to date, and according to teammates and coaches, he has looked much better than he did last season, which was his first since an ACL tear forced him to miss the entire 2017 regular season. 2019 Season outlook: Murphy will almost certainly end up on the roster this season, and he will almost certainly end up the starter across from Hughes. Now, if he endures another training camp and preseason marred by injury or ineffective play? Well, then he’ll top every prognosticator’s list of “surprise cuts” in August when those articles begin to publish. If Murphy can return to the form he showed in 2016, where he had nine sacks and 25 quarterback hits, then the Bills will be thrilled with their investment. If he can’t prove that year was anything more than a fluke (one potentially fueled by PED use, for which he would have been suspended for Washington’s first four games in 2017 had he not injured his knee) Youth Thurman Thomas Jerseys , then Murphy will almost certainly be playing his last year in Buffalo. Either way, the 2019 season is a pivotal one in Trent Murphy’s career. The potential deal fell through not because Brown didn’t like Buffalo—the team simply wouldn’t redo his contract."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections NewsNotesOpinionAnalysisDiscussionPodcastNFL DraftSalary CapNotesAntonio Brown rejected move to Buffalo over money, not lifestyleNew,66commentsThe potential deal fell through not because Brown didn’t like Buffalo—the team simply wouldn’t redo his contract.EDTShareTweetShareShareAntonio Brown rejected move to Buffalo over money, not lifestyleWhen the Buffalo Bills’ attempt to trade for superstar wide receiver Antonio Brown fell through, it was widely reported that Brown vetoed the deal because he didn’t want to play in Buffalo. In a story published Monday on ESPN.com by Jeremy Fowler and Paul Gutierrez, new details reveal that while Brown might not have wanted to suit up in Western New York, it was because the team wouldn’t redo the remaining years on his contract, and not because he didn’t like the city of Buffalo and the Bills’ organization. According to Fowler and Gutierrez, Brown’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, engaged in conversations with Buffalo general manager Brandon Beane on March 4, one day after the Pittsburgh Steelers granted Rosenhaus permission to speak with the Bills. Up to that point, the teams had been discussing a potential trade of the All-Pro wideout to Buffalo, with part of the package centering around the Steelers receiving Buffalo’s No. 9 overall pick, and the Bills receiving Pittsburgh’s No. 20 overall selection. When Pittsburgh allowed Rosenhaus the chance to speak with Beane Thurman Thomas Jerseys Stitched , it showed that the Steelers were satisfied with the potential return they would receive for Brown. But as soon as Rosenhaus and Beane began chatting, it became evident that the deal wouldn’t advance over one key issue. Beane was steadfast in his vow to not redo the remaining years on Brown’s contract, a fact that was a non-starter for the wide receiver, which effectively killed any deal. ”I never spent a lot of time with the Bills on this,” said Rosenhaus in the ESPN.com issue, emphasizing that Brown’s issue with Buffalo was purely based on the status of redoing his contract, and not, as was reported, because he was unwilling to play for the Bills. “We were never close.”Less than a week later, Brown found his new home when the Steelers traded him to the Oakland Raiders, who quickly reworked his contract. Pittsburgh, meanwhile, was left with a diminished return (a third- and fifth-round draft pick) for the most talented wide receiver in the game and was on the hook for $21 million in dead cap space for a player no longer on the roster. Given the amount of trash-talking Brown has done towards his former Pittsburgh teammates, and the amount of baggage he brings with him to Oakland, perhaps it was a blessing after all that a deal with Buffalo fell through.
