Here we go to Tuesday, Draftist, Thursday, right around the corner. This is the herd. Live in Los Angeles, wherever you may be and however you may be listening.

We're on I heart radio, Fox Sports Radio and FS1. Lincoln Riley, Oklahoma Football Head Coach, who coach Kyler Murray, who now appears to be going number one.

We'll join us in one hour from now. Joy Taylor is stopping in as usual. How are you, Joy?

I'm great. Good morning. Here we go. Pretty close to the draft. Very, very close to the draft. It's Thursday and there are stories now. Here's where we begin. There are stories now from reputable sources. People I trust that it does appear Arizona's made a decision and increasingly it looks like the decision is to move off Josh Rosen and to draft Kyler Murray.

Not what I would necessarily do, but I get what they're trying to do. They have a coach in Cliff Kingsbury. It appears Kyler Murray is better for his system. You can certainly make the argument in that division with Jimmy G Russell Wilson, Jared Goff.

You're going to need some dynamic playmaker at the quarterback position. I get the argument, but Arizona last year. I don't think they're brilliantly run. I think they have the fourth best roster in the division.

I think Josh Rosen may be very lucky here and end up with a better football team and a better roster and an easier division going forward. Peter King is saying this morning he would be surprised if the Cardinals didn't draft Kyler Murray with a top overall pick. Joel Klatt said this yesterday. I trust him on our show.

Do you have any inside sources saying Arizona will take Kyler Murray? Yes. Oh, so you're breaking news here. I'm not breaking news. I'm 90%. Okay. I would be shocked if they're if they're not going to take him.

All right. There you go. Peter King, Joel Klatt, believe it strongly. Let me just say this. You got to get the quarterback position right. This is starting to feel like not only a game changer for Arizona, but such an opportunity for the New York Giants.

A couple of years ago, there was this team on the West Coast called the San Francisco 49ers and they'd hire this young offensive coach Kyle Shanahan. No proven head coaching track record. They had a general manager, John Lynch, that we were all kind of unsure off if it would work.

And they had some good players on the roster, but we just kind of thought, man, all of a sudden they signed Jimmy G from New England and like like instantly. You're like, okay, we got real franchise here. Okay. Now we got the coach. Now we got the quarterback.

The GM seems to know what he's doing and they already had some good. Just the Jimmy G signing took the Niners from like a mess and the Niners again had an offensive coach unproven a GM. We weren't sure of they were unsure going forward on quarterback and then Jimmy G came in. Boom. Here's the New York Giants.

They have an offensive coach Pat Shermer with a great track record, but we're not sure of they have some good players on that roster. We know that for sure like the Niners, they got some explosive players. They have a general manager, day, gentlemen, we're not really sure it's going to work and they're unsure of their quarterback going forward.

And here's Josh Rosen. He's the Jimmy G and like Jimmy G a beautiful thrower of the football.

Little bit with both of injury concerns Jimmy G got hurt at New England a couple times people like Rosen and college got hurt a little bit.

Both Rosen and Jimmy G did not have enough starts to definitively say we know they'll be blank, but boy, they looked apart.

And for both Garoppolo all it took was a second round pick and for the Giants, it appears all it's going to take is a second round pick.

Giants being the Niners step up, make the obvious move. If you're not going to draft the Wayne Haskins, which I would, I think we're over thinking the room on the Wayne Haskins, I draft him. If you're not, go get Josh Rosen.

If you don't have the quarterback situation settled in this league, it hangs over the fans, the locker room, the players. I mean Jacksonville had that one great year, but I mean you just it never felt sealed in the Niners were the Giants smart offensive coach, a GM.
