With the 16th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks drafted interior defensive lineman Byron Murphy. Over the past two off-seasons Seattle has given Leonard Williams a 3-year deal worth $64,000,000 and handed $30,000,000 million in total guarantees to Dre’Mont Jones. Despite that, defensive line was still an area of need for a Seahawks defense that (again) got gashed in the run game last season. They addressed that hole with Murphy, who has multiple tools he can use to defend against the run and the pass, some of which we will review below.
