In a taped phone interview Tuesday on College Football Live, Kyle Parker told host John Saunders -- and we're paraphrasing here -- that if the money is right, he expects to play pro baseball. This sentiment certainly dovetails with what Bill Schmidt, the Colorado Rockies VP of scouting, told Scott Keepfer of the Greenville News: "We thought he was our best guy, no doubt, and we believe as a group he wants to start his professional career. He has a little leverage. He has three years more of football, but we believe that he'd like to get out and play."
As we've pointed out, you don't use a first-round pick on a guy and then low ball him, so the Rockies obviously intend to get this deal done. A bonus in the $2 million to $3 million range should suffice to buy Parker out of his football career, which means that when fall camp starts, Tajh Boyd will be the Tigers' QB.
