Kenneth Murray, Oklahoma

Production and leadership skills are two of the main calling cards of Kenneth Murray out of Oklahoma. He had a whopping 37 tackles for loss in his three seasons with the Sooners, as well as 9.5 sacks. Murray also had more than 100 tackles in each of the last two seasons, being credited with 28 in one game back in 2018. He was named team captain twice for the Sooners, and also performed the role of the defensive signal-caller in all three of his college seasons.

Murray posted an excellent 4.52-second 40-yard dash time at the NFL Scouting Combine. Only five players at linebacker were clocked with a faster time, four of whom were lighter than Murray’s 241 pounds.

Murray has a great engine and only knows one speed when he’s playing, namely full speed. He would certainly energize the Baltimore linebacker room if they were to select him, which they would likely have to do at No. 28 if they want him.
