Unfortunate for the A's. They won't get a comp pick for this. Essentially just lost their 1st rounder

didn't they pick him with the understanding he would play QB at OU for one more

I see why they did it. Great prospect who you think you can safely assume won't make enough noise as a first year

I don't think he was all that great of a prospect. He was graded as a

he's taking the guaranteed money. First rounder money will have him set for life

Wait... don't you have this reversed? Baseball contracts ARE guaranteed

He will get a guaranteed 10-15 million for signing his name

Dissenter

He's projected as a late-first round pick. That puts him at $11M non-guaranteed

Based on what?

Closer to #1 you go the more guaranteed money you get. Rosen got his entire deal guaranteed last year.

This. 1st round NFL money is way higher

Wilson seems a lot stronger and durable to me

He's also like 3 inches taller

griffin is about 5 inches taller. just saying he's as much wilson as griffin.

RG3 also was rookie of the year and lit up the NFL

right - that speaks to my point - stay healthy, that kind of QB can get it done

If Kyler Murray comes in at the combine at 5'8, I'll quit CB.
