I think the best move he could make, if he wants to play sports at the highest level, is to become a slot receiver. With his quickness and ability to cut without losing speed, he could play in the NFL.

Didn't you get the memo from the mods on this site? Kyle Murray threads are not allowed. They've been deleting them and anchoring them since, like, forever.

Well that's just dumb on anyone's part to turn down that much money. Ask Von Poppel how that worked out for him.
Van Poppel signed for 900K more than Chipper Jones (the #1 pick that year). Including signing bonus, Van Poppel made 9 million in his career. Pretty good for a journey man reliever drafted in '90. Given the bust rate for high school pitchers, it's pretty hard to fault him for using his leverage to maximize his signing bonus. Given hindsight of how his career actually played out, it's impossible to say he made the wrong move. Braves we're looking to low-ball a high school kid and did. They got lucky in that they drafted a hall of famer.

Yep, he could have been part of a HOF staff, and I say that not even liking the Braves.
