Where does everyone have him going? I have him going in the top 10, most likely number one to the Cardinals. I do not see any way that Kingsbury will pass up a chance to draft Murray.

Cards just drafted Josh Rosen in rnd 1. No way they draft another QB with their 1st pick.

Cards have Rosen. No way in hell they draft another QB so high. I think Raiders or Giants draft him

I love what he's doing. I've never seen a player publicly put two professional leagues against each other for their own personal gain. In these sports the athletes are interchangeable, so I'm all for them getting all they can while they can do it.

As a prospect I don't know him that well. I do know this is a weak QB class. The top names have 'flashed' NFL potential, which is a bad sign. If someone only showed NFL ability in moments while playing against lower level NCAA defenses it figures to be a long transition.

Anyway, we'll see. With having a young QB on the roster news like this is good because it pushes those QB hungry teams up draft boards.

Rosen was also a pretty good prospect and I don't think Arizona saw anything in year one where they are willing to cut bait.

Pretty baller move to make the MLB change their rules, but then jump to the NFL.

He's 5'9. No matter how good or athletic he is that is a big issue to overcome.

No he isn't.

Weak QB class, he has the most upside potentially, and is the biggest name.

There are still plenty of qb needy teams that he DEFINITELY goes in the first. Shit, oakland has 3 chances to take him.

I think he goes late first round. I think he is pretty dumb going to football and risking brain damage when he could have got the A's to renegotiate and had the sweet life.

No team will draft him in the first if they think there is even a chance he chooses baseball after the draft

It would be throwing away a first round pick - and I don't believe there would be any compensation. Just a first round pick down the crapper...

A's weren't going to renegotiate as too far away from majors and the bust rate in MLB is much higher. Not to mention he still has huge holes in his swing that he may never correct.

If he has a chance of going in the first, he should take it and I say that as an A's fan. Guaranteed money for 1st rounder much higher in football than baseball as they get paid shit in majors until they hit arbitration and the really big money doesn't come until FA.

2nd or 3rd rounder most likely. Definitely don't see a team taking him in the first.

"He's never seen" =/= It's never happened.

"Read up on Bo Jackson and horse boy Elway" =/= You are wrong.


I just gave him some examples of when it happened before so he can learn that it has already happened in the past.

I could have gone Eli Manning for a more recent example, if I wanted a chance of proving him wrong.
