per ESPN:

Brian Bennett: Minnesota CB Eric Murray (fourth round, No. 106 overall, Kansas City Chiefs)

Murray was continually underrated during his Big Ten career, so it’s fitting that he was undervalued in the NFL draft. A second-team all-conference pick in 2014 and a third-teamer in 2015, Murray helped anchor an excellent Golden Gophers pass defense with his ability to lock down receivers, his physicality and his leadership. He didn’t grab a lot of interceptions (just two in his career), but he’s an outstanding athlete who should be able to help right away as an extra defensive back, if not an outright starter. Kansas City got a steal in the fourth round.
