Heading into the draft, the Arizona Cardinals have the first pick with the San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets having the second and third picks.
The expectation that Murray will be drafted as the top pick has heightened as NFL.com have reported that he will have his first official visit to the Cardinals.
NFL Network's Mike Garafolo added that the 21-year-old's agent is also the agent of Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury which could help the deal go through.
Alongside his impressive statistics and dynamic highlight reel, interest in Murray grew as he played both American football and baseball in college and was drafted by Major League Baseball outfit, the Oakland Athletics in the summer.
The A's had offered Murray a contract worth $4.66m but in January he confirmed he would pursue a career in the NFL.
The draft lasts until April 27 with the first, second and third rounds taking place on April 25 and 26. The final day will include rounds four-seven.
