Good point I heard earlier today . . . in a league that is reducing the importance of speed (the A's had 35 steals last year as a team), his baseball skills are becoming less coveted. Meanwhile, smaller quarterbacks are becoming more accepted. If he gets drafted in the first four rounds in football, he's on the 53 man roster. In baseball, he's going to be playing for the Beloit Snappers this year.

Wait! But I thought Lamar Jackson was going to be broken in half within one quarter and was the 2nd coming of RGIII!

What makes you think that Jackson is the answer in Baltimore? The negative yards passing through three quarters of his first playoff game? The thirteen fumbles he had in eight games? Right now he should hope he can get to the level of RGIII.

Kyler Murray completed 69% of his passes his first year of being a college quarterback. Lamar Jackson got up to 59.1% in his third year of being a college quarterback.

I wouldn't draft Kyler Murray - - but he'll be a first round pick. And his college stats say he has more of a chance of pro success than Lamar Jackson will have.
