NFL prospect Kyler Murray says he is committed to football

The Miami Dolphins will be a hot landing spot for Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray who today stated he is committing to the NFL.

For the last month or more Kyler Murray has danced around the subject of where his future would be in professional sports. Drafted by the Oakland A’s in the 2018 draft, Murray signed a contract with them but can opt out after he pays back any bonuses he received. He was due to report to camp today.

Now for the first time since the drama of baseball or football became a reality, Murray is saying no thanks to the A’s and heading to the NFL.

Naturally the Miami Dolphins who hold the 13th pick in this years draft will be a top landing spot for Murray in many mock drafts. Those that are in love with Murray are pleased with the announcement while others shake their head. Murray is talented and there is no denying that but how well his small frame, think of Doug Flutie, will hold up in the NFL is a serious question.

In today’s NFL it is much harder to hurt a quarterback, even a mobile running quarterback. Rules are in place to make sure that the QB stays as safe and relatively untouched as possible. This is the argument that pro-Murray fans take.

Murray does have talent but there are flaws in his throwing motion and with his release point. That won’t turn off many teams who believe they can fix those issues.

With the draft now a little under two months away Murray will have to focus on the NFL Combine and schedule a pro-day and he is going to have to answer a lot of questions about his true intentions regardless of today’s declaration.
