"Many lists would have Fiske over Murphy for general impact, as Fiske is a splashy player who had seven TFLs and six sacks. But I saw teams go after Fiske in the running game with plenty of success. Murphy battled hamstring and back injuries this season, but when he was healthy, he was tearing up opposing offensive lines. Compare their respective win rates, too. Fiske posted a 9.5% in pass rush and 35.2% against the run; 8.1% pass and 32.4% run for Murphy. The difference between them isn't nearly what the box score stats would imply," Solak writes.

He was drinking through a fire hose in Mike Macdonald's defense and was asked to play a big variety of techniques and alignments. I thought he handled it with aplomb, and I would not be surprised if he has a Nnamdi Madubuike-esque leap in his second year in this defense."
