I think Drew Brees is 40. Saints maybe.

Andrew Luck signed a 6 year deal worth $140 Million in 2016 which is basically the largest NFL contract ever given.

Alex Rodriguez, Miguel Cabrera, Robinson Cano, Albert Pujols all signed contracts worth $100 Million more than Luck. Bryce Harper was offered a 10 year deal for $300 Million and turned it down, more than double Luck's.

Considering the way most football contracts are structured with relatively 'cheap' rookie deals, you would have a very hard time talking me into going the NFL route over MLB

Mayfield isn't exactly a giant. [/quote]
BOOM !!!

Murray will be a great TV draw as Mayfield and The Chiefs kid QB. I cant imagine watching baseball for the rest of my life, yuck.

Although, physical longevity is much better

Mahomes is slinging the ball well and he is 6" taller than Murray....

Ok Beave, I'll give you the women curling and women sand volleyball!

Big mistake in my opinion

I think you guys are misjudging the compete that this kid carries along with the grind that is minor league baseball. In the NFL he will get his shot whether he can be successful or not who knows. But he will be riding first class to and from each stadium, the media, endorsement deals, ect… He will be treated like a king compared to what minor league baseball has to offer. NFL rookies are on 4 year contracts worth about $2.3 million total, add in endorsements ect.. and I don't think the initial money difference is going to be very far apart.

Hell Tebow went back and got a shot at baseball so I know Murray will be able to if the NFL doesn't work out.

Oh yeah, he's tiny. Personally, I think he should go MLB but his passion seems to be football.

Who is the current shortest best qb?

Honestly I think it’s dumb , plenty of good short people in the nba

The comparisons to mlb and nfl are very fair.

Endorsements more in nfl. Even Eli Manning makes 10 millions year on endorsements.

Yes baseball makes more, but 10 times the amount of games.

In baseball youre less likely to have a brain injury.

^^^^^ Longevity is better in MLB but why anyone would want to play the game is beyond me. It's a snoozer.

Russell Wilson probably is. We all know he isn't any good. Poor guy. Drew Brees is 6'00" and he has barely been able to compete at the NFL level.

Murray is several inches short than both of those guys. It would give me pause if I was a GM. We'll see what happens, I'm not against any man taking what the market will pay.

Not built to be an NFL QB. He could be a player if used like Sproles IMO.

His opportunity for the NFL is right now. He can go back and play baseball if this doesn't work out. I think choosing the NFL is a no brainer for the kid.

6’5” 6’4” 6’5” 6’5” 6’4” thats OUs starting line this year. The average height of an NFL lineman is 6’5” so I don’t think seeing over the lineman is an issue as some have said. There isn’t that much of a difference in size between college and the NFL, but the skill level is obviously greater. The only issue I see with him playing in the league is longevity, but that is every players issue. The average NFL career is less than 4 years. The guy has the speed and talent to earn a shot. Being tall doesn’t automatically make you a successful qb, Vince Young, Jamarcus Russsell and Ryan Mallet come to mind but there is many more examples. If I remember correctly people said he was too short to be a successful QB at the college level because of his size and that he would probably have to switch positions, he’s obviously proven that to be false.

The NFL rules of protecting the QB are pretty strict, which helps him.

Who do you want as a backup QB?

Colt McCoy
Cooper Rush.
Ryan Tannehill
Mark Sanchez.

Give me Kyler.

Was surprised to learn he is a Freshmen.

Hand size should be interesting. He fumbled at the red river shootout trying to scramble.....nobody touched him. Just came out of his hand.

Hope he goes to the NFL. The way they are protecting quarterbacks now he could have a long successful career. He is only 2 inches shorter than Russell Wilson.

He is stupid if he doesn't pursue baseball as his career of choice. More guaranteed $$ in most cases, more longevity, and he is 5'9", which doesn't matter in baseball but is a huge deficit in football.

That happens. There are a few running backs in the NFL smaller than he is without his speed and quickness.

Yeah, his stature really held him back in high school and college football, didn't it?

Rookies drafted in first 2 rounds have guaranteed contracts. If he goes in the first round he would be guaranteed at least $10 Mil.....If he's out of the league in 3 years he can always go play baseball again.

Sliding in baseball is probably his biggest risk. Sliding in the NFL would be his best safe way out. If I were him, I would play some hum babe hum ball!!!

I’m sure he’s sweating those side deals with Nike or Pepsi we never hear about
