Cowboys ‘Favored’ to Trade for Kyler Murray? What Happened to Dak Prescott?

FRISCO – The media is commonly and rightly blamed for together with the Dallas Cowboys in as many headlines as potential – no matter whether or not the Cowboys are literally tied in any method to the story.

However this … is not that.

That is, we predict, a sports activities guide doing that.

The drama surrounding the Arizona Cardinals and star quarterback Kyler Murray continues on this offseason, with the membership – regardless of insisting that it’s fully dedicated to the previous No. 1 total participant taken in his draft – not but truly making any transfer that demonstrates that dedication.

That’s, no new contract supply but.

That piece of precise information (from NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero) has spawned the anticipated “inside information” … or, perhaps, simply gossip. Oh, and odds on Murray’s subsequent crew.

And extremely, outdoors of the Cardinals retaining him, Odds Checker – which has the Cardinals at -500, or an implied probability of 83.3 p.c to maintain Murray – the favourite to be Murray’s 2022 employer is …

Your Dallas Cowboys.

Dallas has been given +800 odds, or an implied probability of 11.1 p.c to land Murray.

The Atlanta Falcons are at +1000 (9.1 p.c probability), the Pittsburgh Steelers are at +1600 odds (5.9 p.c), the Philadelphia Eagles are at +2200 (4.3 p.c) and the Houston Texans are given +3000 odds (3.2 p.c).

You learn Mike Florio at Professional Soccer Speak and perhaps some of these things is sensible. Florio writes: “The obvious candidates could be the three finalists for Deshaun Watson who didn’t get the brand new Browns quarterback: Panthers, Falcons, and Saints. … 

Now, there are points right here …

4) The Falcons and a few of the others talked about would have some cap challenges in attempting to signal Murray after which constructing round him.

5) There is no such thing as a precise proof – Florio floating his notion of potential touchdown spots for Murray apart – that any of those groups have any involvement right here. “Apparent candidates”? That’s an awfully robust method to phrase what in essence is only a non-sourced prediction. (Florio additionally mentions the Eagles and Texans however for some cause doesn’t label them as “apparent.”)

6) However not less than Florio has pegged groups that may be within the QB market.

The place, although, does the Dallas thought come from? As a result of he is from DFW? As a result of he is besties with CeeDee Lamb? Do not the Cowboys have already got Dak Prescott? Is the oddsmaker conscious of him?

Sure. Certainly. However we wager – pun meant – that the oddsmaker additionally is aware of that placing the Cowboys onto the board attracts gamblers. And sure, attracts headlines, too.
