The receiving aspect of Murphy's game out of backfield is just as strong as his abilities in the return game. He's going to prove to be a valuable asset there especially if Spiller goes down at any point in the season. The addition of Murphy gives Payton another option as a joker type back.
This is why I didn't understand why people were so upset at the Murphy pick.

First of all, he's...what? a 6th round pick?
Who cares?

Secondly, we just got rid of Pierre Thomas.
We need more players like him.
Although Murphy might not have the power Thomas had, they may end up playing similar roles on offense.

Agreed. While Murphy may not run with the power Thomas ran with, he is still elusive with his quickness. He also plays with a ton of heart just like Thomas did. I think Murphy eventually becomes a fan favorite similar to Thomas as well.
