Murphy Talks Style: A good profile on Belton OL Justin Murphy, who talks about his style of play (via WacoTrib):

"I really like what they do," Murphy said. "They have an offense that really fits who I am as an offensive lineman. Because of my body type, I’m a more pass-oriented lineman. Though I can do both (run-blocking and pass-blocking), that fits me really well."

Two Commits: I'm running behind a bit and I'll get these profiles up as soon as possible, but over the weekend, Shaquille Davis, a 2014 JUCO offensive lineman from Mt. San Antonio C.C. (Walnut, CA) committed, as well as Corey Dauphine, a 2015 running back from Port Arthur, Texas (via LAJ). The DMN has more on Dauphine's commitment (via DMN).

Draft Profile: Expect to see a ton of TE Jace Amaro draft profiles over the course of the next few months and this profile (via NEPatriotsDraft).
