A year removed from 7 sacks and 21 QB hits in 11 games.

 

For reference, Shaq had 10.5 sacks and 30 QB hits in the last 29 games.

I can't go by a stat line that's a year removed cause of injury. I can only go by what we've all seen this past year, and Shaq was the better player. He's younger and starting to hit his stride as he figures things out. Vernon's best days are behind him in IMO, but that's just my opinion. Only McBeane can determine if he's worthy to hold a place here.

True, but Shaq's the FA, not Murphy.

 

Vernon may be a slight upgrade over Murphy if healthy. Very slight.

Right - I meant that if a guy like Vernon is signed I think Murphy would be the odd guy out, and wouldn’t impact their decision on Shaq. I think Shaq’s future is more tied to any long term solution they move forward with at DE, whether that be a different young FA or a high draft pick.

I thought it seemed like they leaked it to see if they could get a pick for him before they cut him, which makes sense. It was a bad trade but not on the current regime, they should definitely move on if he doesn’t take a pay cut. He’s a decent piece but hadn’t proven to be worth that cap hit
