Hopefully he doesn't have the same "happy feet". Amazing arm talent, not so great pocket presence.


CARSON WENTZ’S INFO

College: North Dakota State
Class: 2016
Hometown: Bismarck, North Dakota
Height: 6’6″
Weight: 231
Position: Quarterback
Position Ranking: 4
40 Time: 4.87

STRENGTHS

Ideal size for his position.
Very mobile and is not scared to put his head down and run.
Insane accuracy at all ranges. It’s probably the weak competition, but he looks like the most accurate quarterback in the draft.
Great pocket presence and poise.
He’s a winner. Led his team to a 15-1 record and a FCS National Title in his first season as the starter.
Great leader and goes through his progressions well.
Good mechanics.
WEAKNESSES

Was kinda unclear. I was referring to Jim Everett's great arm and not so special pocket presence.

Weak competition. This is the main reason that people aren’t buying into him. If he played in Division-1 he would most likely be a first or second round pick.
Makes poor decisions at times, leading to turnovers.

From what I've seen so far, Wentz doesn't seem to have that problem.

I may have confused myself, so forgive me if I'm thinking of someone else but over in the draft thread there are videos posted and I was not impressed by this guy at all. I certainly wouldn't have classified him to have "insane" accuracy. Maybe if one has watched his whole career it would paint a different story?

I've never liked Kevin Demoff more than i do right now...


I had a huge Everett poster on my basement wall. I think it was almost life-size.

Puts a new spin on the old joke:

My wife ran off with my Pat Haden book, I sure do miss that book...

Not to rub it in, but I've still got mine. Just recently picked up Roman Gabriel's book but have yet to read either. Also have Jack Younglood's books and a signed copy of ED's.

That's no joke. I do miss that book. It had a great dust jacket. Some great stories in it too.

I also had a great book titled The History of the Los Angeles Rams.

Lost that one too.
