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

Bad move. He's a small Robert Griffin.

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

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

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

not sure how you judge durability - has Murray ever missed games due

He's also like 3 inches taller

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

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.
