Kyler Murray NFL Draft Betting Props

Will Kyler Murray became the next fabled two-sport athlete or will he decide against entering the NFL Draft ahead of Monday’s deadline?

*Editor Note: Murray has declared for the NFL draft, Bovada has now posted odds on which round he will be selected, an over-under of 28.5 on his draft selection and an over-under of 2.5 on the number of QBs who will be drafted ahead of him. Check out Bovada’s NFL props list for the latest.

When Murray was drafted by the Oakland Athletics last summer, it looked like the choice had been made and the two-sport star was destined for the baseball diamond. Murray’s Heisman Trophy winning season on the grid iron with the Oklahoma Sooners changed all that after it substantially raised his NFL draft stock.

Kyler Murray NFL Draft betting props have been popping up for weeks now and more were posted on the weekend.

Murray has until Monday evening to decide if he wants to enter the NFL draft and make himself eligible for NFL riches and for legend status in the footsteps of Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders.

At Bovada the odds maker expect Murray to enter the NFL Draft. On the “Will Kyler Murray Enter the NFL Draft?“ Prop odds at Bovada, yes is favored at – 150, while no is a +300 underdog.

The Athletics, who already paid him a $4 million signing bonus, would rather he forget the NFL dreams altogether and just commit to baseball. That appears doubtful now.
