Charlie Campbell - Murray is a fast and physical linebacker who flies around the field and is always around the ball. He is put together well and a good tackler. At times, Murray can make mistakes from being overly aggressive and over-pursuing on some plays, but he is a heat-seeking missile who has generated a big buzz in the scouting community for being a future three-down starter and difference-maker. A sideline-to-sideline run defender, good in zone coverage, covers a lot of ground in pass defense, and is a dangerous blitzer. Reminds this evaluator of a young Thomas Davis. In 2019, Murray had 102 tackles with four sacks and four passes batted. Was a tackling machine for the Sooners in 2018 and was one of the nation's leaders with 155 stops. He also added 12.5 tackles for a loss with two passes batted.

McShay - "...A chase-him-down, bring-him-down linebacker in the middle of the defense....While Murray doesn't have ideal coverage skills, he has great speed and tackling ability, manifested in his 102 tackles this past season at Oklahoma...."

Lindy's - "Excellent size, length and speed....His burst pops on tape...arrives to the ballcarrier violently.and has a wide tackle radius...enough speed, fluid hips and length to be rangy in zone.and the quickness to track TEs and RBs in man...moves downhill vs the run...willing to play physical...Still learning...a bit raw...notably hesitant to pull trigger....much to learn in coverage...rarely played man to man...often fooled by eye candy in front of him...most of the tools are present but unhrnessed...Comp: Darron Lee..."

PFF - "Moses is still a work in progress one-on-one in coverage, but he can play in space as well as any linebacker in the country. He also comes downhill as a blitzer like he’s shot out of a cannon."

Charlie Campbell - Recorded 84 tackles with 2.5 sacks, four passes defended, two forced fumbles and two interceptions. He was a solid player for the Ducks and showed his toughness by playing with a cast on his hand at the end of the regular season... Has been a good defender for the Ducks over the past three seasons. Best season came as a junior in 2018 when he totaled 115 tackles with eight tackles for a loss, two sacks, one interception and eight passes defended. Has shown progress in pass coverage..."

Charlie Campbell - Over the past two seasons, he's been a tough run defender and a tackling machine. In 2019, Woodward totaled 93 tackles with two sacks, four forced fumbles and two passes defended. Was even better as a sophomore with 134 tackles, five sacks, two interceptions and three passes defended.

PFF - "As a sophomore, Woodward was one of the most productive linebackers in the country. He’s got smooth hips and is an above average athlete for the position, but he still needs to fill out his frame quite a bit."

Lindy's - Top HS RB...played in only 7 games in 2919 (knee injury)...Patient and instinctive...trusts his eyes...Looked like a completely different player when he was younger and may be able to rekindle that spark...Play speed took a massive step backward in 2019...just quit on tackle attempts...Slow feet...size may be an issue...lacks agility...washed out in the running game...Comp: Martrell Spaight..."

Lindy's (as an ILB) - 2019 team capt....Foot injury sidelined him in 2019....Looks the part of an NFL edge rusher...Long arms and excellent hand-eye coordination to slither through to knock the ball out of the QB's hand...Effective bullrusher and run anchor wjhen he keeps his pads low...Good lateral agility...Coordinated athlete who doesn't look out of place when asked to drop back into coverage...But too reliant on his length and athletiism...broke up jist one pass during his college career...Too easily fooled by misdirection and cut blocks...Plays a finesse style that won't fit with every team......too easily tossed to the ground...Comp: Samson Ebukam..."
