They specifically targeted and hired Baylor's old AD who was there when all of that stuff went down. I didn't know who that was but after googling him, he seems like the perfect fit for Liberty. An awful person and an enormous hypocrite who constantly references Jesus in between his sex worker and bribery scandals

I don't really understand the argument about Murray's build insofar as his ability to hold up to playing in the NFL- is there something to suggest the types of hits that the quarterback takes are the issue here? Because there are a poo poo-load of NFL runningbacks who have the same general dimensions as the 5'10/11", 195 pounds that Murray is listed at: http://pfref.com/tiny/J6j04 I mean just in general using size as a predictor of how someone is going to hold up to the wear and tear of the NFL really just seems like an impossibly crude guesstimate when what you're really worrying about is body mechanic and tendon and ligament flexibility and strength, and that seems pretty far beyond the NFL right now.

you have outliers like Darren Sproles who is tiny and somehow still playing with the same speed at the age of 54 but for the most part small running backs don't have the longevity you look for in a franchise QB

Like Devonta Freeman. Tiny, shifty, agile, but also thinks he is a power back and tries (and succeeds) in running through people. Feel like Freeman isn't long for the league with his run style and it is already showing. Guys that last forever don't take kill shots. I remember Marvin Harrison falling down before contact...guys can do it and have long careers they just have to be smart. Sproles seems like another guy who defenders never clean a clean shot on.

So are Russell Wilson and Maurice Jones-Drew. It's being slender that is the risk. Then again, Eli isn't particularly beefy and he had the consecutive start streak. So who knows?: shrug:

Guys like Eli and Rivers and Peyton and Brady know when a play is dead and just collapse so they don't get killed by the sack.

I want Lock to go first round cause I want him to be paid. I was conflicted when he came back for his senior year. Also I want him to be drafted by a cool-ish, but not awesome team so I can move his franchise in Madden.

I think theres a decent argument to be made that the small slender QB risk doesnt matter as much when teams are trying to build "win now" teams on their rookie contracts. The season ending ones sure but accumulated damage probably doesnt factor was much when you expect a 3-4 year window

Weight distribution and muscle density is hugely important too. Those 5'10 195 RBs pack a ton of lower body and core strength. Pat White was murdered on the field because he was 190 pounds of normal body human body, not muscle. Also there's almost no RBs left in the NFL that are traditional thinner scat backs. Almost every starting RB this year was at least 200 pounds and of the two that weren't (Lindsay and Breida) one was injured constantly throughout the season while the other suffered a season ending injury. Being 190 pounds as opposed to 205 pounds is a huge deal if those 15 pounds are muscle. Like there's a reason why weigh ins exist for boxing and MMA. The best thing going for Murray right now is that it's pretty much illegal to look at a QB in today's NFL.

It had nothing to do with his weight, unless he somehow could have collected fat or muscle in his body in the fashion of a beluga whale's forehead or something like that.

Runningback is like one of the only NFL positions that hasn't seen a meaningful increase in size over time: https://deadspin.com/how-have-the-weights-of-nfl-positions-changed-over-time-1545701731 Meanwhile, I don't think the physical trauma even a relatively high volume rushing quarterback receives is really on the face of it comparable to even a change of pack back. Especially when you're talking about a league that punishes defenders for taking shots on quarterbacks, and encourages guys to slide while rushing.

Weight increase* and according to that article not a lot of positions have either since the early 2000's. Again weight doesn't equal muscles. Pat White woulda died either way.

Most RBs make around one-third to one-quarter that. You obviously treat a guy with that kind of importance to the team, and that kind of contract, a little bit differently. For example, if Kirk Cousins got hurt in Minnesota then good luck finding another QB to replace him when he is eating up $28 million of cap. If your RB goes down, you plug in the other guy on your roster.

I'm not saying that you are not taking on any additional risk with Kyler Murray, I just think the risk is overstated and in some respects based on some weird beliefs. I think it's also worth noting that Murray is pretty responsible with regards to his body- he's got no qualms at all about sliding early and often: https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2018/9/14/17857678/kyler-murray-running-ability-baseball-sliding
