9th overall. A's retain his rights if (when) he returns to MLB.
I though all along that it was a smart business decision to choose NFL over MLB especially once it became apparent the Cardinals would draft him #1. Pocket more money in the short term than he ever could in MLB in the same time frame and if the NFL didn't work out, he could head back to MLB with tons of hype and for sure play longer than he ever could in the NFL, thus translating to even more $$$.
