    He'll head to the NFL draft... and see if he makes it. He can always fall back on baseball or do both... which was mentioned above.

    Murray will have to stand on the bench to see the field while holding the clipboard.

    Business 101. Oakland has been cleared by the MLB to do so as well. Entering the draft was just the beginning of his bigger deal with the A's.

    His signing bonus with Oakland is 4.5 million, he hasn't received all the money yet, there's no reason to think he'll be more than a late 2nd or 3rd round pick, which means he'll make more playing baseball, it seems like a dumb move unless he's really serious about playing football, and he doesn't have the size to play QB in the NFL.

    Teams know that its not clear if Murray will even play football, no one will take him in the first round, and Murray is extremely small, he's not a prototypical NFL QB at all. If you take a player in the first round who doesn't play in the NFL you can be fired.

    This isn't the Yankees or Dodgers. The A's are cheap and aren't going to overpay.

    With that said, I wouldn't feel comfortable drafting him without a guarantee he's done with baseball.

    Oakland will offer him more due to this. This was the plan all along. Won't be record numbers, of course, but he will get paid...

    Seriously? That's impossible. He's like 4'6".

    He might be the fastest motherfukker I've ever seen though. He's like a blur on television.

    They giving up on Rosen already?

    Patriots could take him to be Brady's replacement. Brady is old enough to be his father.

    Rosen is like Sanchez. Jets kept him 2 years longer than they should. Sometimes you have to cut your losses.

    Kliff Kingsbury once said he’d draft Kyler Murray No. 1 overall








    who knows where murray will go prob depends on his workout and nfl combine he's a risk though what if he doesn't sign and wants to go back to baseball

    Very risky decision on his part, he better hope the right team drafts him with the system that fits otherwise wasted talent and going to be alot regrets to not go play baseball
