Murray has already declared for the NFL Draft 2019 and he will most likely have to pick between the NFL and MLB where he was first-round pick of the Oakland Athletics. Murray wants to become a first-round pick in this year&#8217;s NFL draft, but needs to accept the invitation and attend the combine. The A\u2019s have already made a big push to convince Murray to pick baseball over football and they still expect him to attend spring training. The reporting date for spring training actually begins before the NFL Combine on Feb. 15. Murray is at the crossroads and will either miss critical time in spring training for the A\u2019s or bypass the NFL Combine workout in early March which would create a major conflict of dates for any two sport participation. He is expected to announce a decision related to the NFL Combine soon, though he still insists he wants to play both sports. That has never proven successful for any prospect especially with QB ambitions and his delay beyond this winter could actually hurt his career potential in either sport.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>The NFL released a list of 338 players who will attend the NFL Scouting Combine which gets underway in Indianapolis on February 26<sup>th<\/sup>. The list includes extensive players from the Power Five Conferences with 261 of the 338 invitations going to prospects from those schools. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>Draft Insiders\u2019 will have an NFL Combine Report and List &#8211; <\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>\u00a0 \u00a0Free for Full subscribers next week \u2013 Order Today<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>Mississippi State DT Jeffrey Simmons and Colorado State wide receiver Preston Williams were not invited to the event after personal conduct rules infractions.
