A’s expect top pick Kyler Murray to enter NFL draft

[TheSpecialJuan]

The A’s expect Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray, the team’s top pick in June, to declare for the NFL draft Sunday, multiple sources told The Chronicle on Wednesday.

Declaring for the draft does not guarantee that Murray, an outfielder whom Oakland selected ninth overall, will decide to reject his $4.66 million deal with the A’s outright, but it certainly increases the chances that Oklahoma’s quarterback will decide to go pro in football rather than baseball.

Good for the nfl and less so for us. Probably will be out of our range and picking a qb in the first would assure us we would be picking 16 again next year.

Let those QB needy teams battle it out. Maybe a top ten prospects will fall to our laps.

That’s what I am hoping. There is no way an elite 4-3 DE is going to get to us unless people start jumping up for QBs.  I wish Herbert would have come out.

L,

 

Not really sure what I’m mentioned for here.

I have never said a single thing about Kyler Murray.

Another L for sanjay

Every hot quarterback that declares is simply another player that will fall OR a chance to gather picks moving down a bit, so who cares.  We shouldnt draft a day 1 QB anyway

Now that I think about it, I don't remember what I said about him that needs crow. I said he'd be crazy to play football when he's got baseball money on the table

I'm happy. If nothing else his presence in the draft will push a higher pick down to us.

What the fug is Arizona thinking?

ESPN’s Adam Schefter didn't outright dismiss the idea that new Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury could trade Josh Rosen—who the franchise selected with the No. 10 overall pick in last year's draft—and draft Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray with the top pick in 2018.

Schefter said the scenario is "not implausible" while appearing on Get Up! on Thursday.
