Why is Kerry Murphy's Name not coming up?

Those projecting the OL, why is Kerry Murphy not a part of that puzzell?

I though the guy was a monster. And... I thought it had been decided
he would play OL. He has a year in prep school for further physical development.

Will he not contribute. I thought he might be a factor at RT immediately.

Re: Why is Kerry Murphy's Name not coming up?
His name was tossed up as going either way. I don't think he'll go OL unless our other prospects don't pan out...

Re: Why is Kerry Murphy's Name not coming up?
Right now Murphy is in the rotation at nose guard, behind both Cody and Chapman.

I don't think the staff has any real plans to have him as an offensive lineman, barring a lot of busts on that side of the ball.

Murphy is doing well enough that Square has been moved to interior end .

Yeah, Kerry is right at home in the middle of the D line. He'll do very well there.

Re: Why is Kerry Murphy's Name not coming up?
Just take a look at the practice videos and you'll see that Murphy is progressing nicely. He still needs time in the weight room to drop some pounds, but he can give us some valuable snaps in 2009 at NG.

I watched Kerry go up against Terrence Cody in drills today... yikes... it was like watching two boulders try to block each other.

Kerry is still in a red jersey, which indicates defense. During the window we were allowed into practice, there wasn't any cross-positional drills such as OL vs. DL. What I saw was strictly work within the individual positions.

So was I. What portion of practice did you watch? The portion I saw had Kerry working with the rest of the defensive line, while the offensive line was off on a completely different portion of the practice field running their own blocking drills.
