Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield is one of many NFL players reacting to the Arizona Cardinals taking Kyler Murray with the No. 1 pick in the 2019 NFL draft.
Murray helped Oklahoma become the first school in history to produce back-to-back top picks in the draft at the same position, with Mayfield earning that honor a year ago when he joined the Browns.
That caused Mayfield to offer his congratulations to the new Cardinals' quarterback as he prepares for the start of his NFL career.
BACK TO BACK!!!!! CONGRATS K1!!!! Well deserved my brotha!!! @TheKylerMurray

There have already been plenty of comparisons made between the two quarterbacks, especially considering that they have a similar playing style in terms of their ability to make plays with their feet.
While there was speculation as to whether the Cardinals would actually go the quarterback route, it's clear that they felt like they couldn't skip a talent like Kyler Murray.
The Cardinals must figure out how they want to proceed with Josh Rosen, who was drafted with the No. 10 pick in the 2018 draft.
It seems inevitable that Arizona will try to trade Rosen, with teams like the New York Giants and Miami Dolphins being potential trade partners.
But Cardinals fans are certainly intrigued at what Murray will bring to the table, especially in what figures to be an entertaining offensive style with Kliff Kingsbury now in charge.
