The first night of the draft came and Wentz.
I'll say this, his demeanor impresses me. They kept grilling him and Goff... Wentz was the natural speaker of the two. Goff looked like the typical nervous kid caught up in the bright lights and hype of NFL-hollywood. Wentz was cool, calm, collected and answered questions like a natural conversationalist. Deion Sanders was like, "You were uptight yesterday." Wentz is all, "No, not really." I mean who wouldn't just agree with Deion Sanders just because you're starstruck talking to Deion Sanders? It's Primetime! You just disagreed with Primetime! Wentz don't care, he isn't afraid to speak to people and he sounded pretty smart when he did.
I really don't see why people keep saying the Eagles gave up so much. The Redskins gave up their next two firsts and a current 2nd to move up from 6th overall to 2nd overall to take RG3. The Eagles gave up a first next year, a 2nd the following year, and a current 3rd and 4th to move up from 8th to 2nd and take Wentz. Much less. Plus they get a conditional 4/5th pick back next year. Maybe you see RG3 as worth more to move up? I don't think his career proves that. The Eagles gave up a lot less. Next years first is the only pick that really hurts. You could trade Bradford after this season for a 2018 2nd (Which I think they probably do.)
Plus, the 3rd rd pick wasn't even our pick. It's Detroit's pick for our 4th last year. Which Chip did to recoup some ammunition because he traded our 2nd this year for Bradford. Heck, the Rams gave up two firsts, two seconds, and two thirds for spot 1, a 4th, and a 6th.
