Mason Murphy gave Auburn sturdy, movable-line value in 2025
Murphy’s 2025 season for Auburn was quietly impressive in the best lineman way: he started all 12 games, opened the first nine at right tackle, then slid to center and handled the pivot without flinching when the Tigers needed flexibility most[1][7]. Auburn’s own bio says he posted a 90%+ grade in four games and delivered multiple knockdown blocks in five, while PFF graded him better as a run blocker (67.6) than a pass blocker (65.9), suggesting a tough, functional, assignment-sound OL with real position versatility[1][3]. The fit? He looked like a plug-and-play veteran presence who can stabilize a line and embrace messy situations without drama[2][15].
