All the rumors around the Arizona Cardinals involve Kyler Murray going number one overall, but coach Kliff Kingsbury claims that the team hasn't decided on who they will be selecting.
Kingsbury clearly has heard all the chatter and said that he is enjoying hearing all the rumors about who he has said he is selecting.
“But it’s fun to hear how I’ve said I do [know] and that it is a done deal and all those things,” Kingsbury said on the Kingsbury Chronicle podcast, via the team website. “So you just roll with it. Enjoy this process.”
Tony Pauline reported that Kingsbury had been telling people at the combine that Murray first overall was a done deal, but Kingsbury said he never said that.
“Yeah, just rolling around Indy saying, ‘It’s a done deal,'” Kingsbury said. “I would have to adamantly deny that.”
Last fall before the Texas Tech Red Raiders took on the Oklahoma Sooners Kingsbury said that he would take Murray with the first overall pick, and that really picked up steam once he took over the Cardinals coaching job.
Kingsbury said that right now he is enjoying the process and likes how all the chatter could be what the team actually believes, or just a smoke screen to the rest of the league.
“It makes it fun having the first pick because nobody knows if you are trying to throw smokescreens or telling the truth or what,” Kingsbury said. “There are a thousand different ways you can go with this, and we are still 50 days away.”
