but no TDs either--What we learned from Senior Bowl: Carson Wentz passes test
With only one quarter of playing time, and the first quarter at that, Carson Wentz didn't have much of a chance to figure in the outcome of the 2016 Reese's Senior Bowl, a 27-16 loss for Wentz’s North squad. But more importantly for Wentz's draft standing, the North Dakota State quarterback played like he practiced all week: With the sharpness, accuracy, and the decisiveness NFL scouts hoped to see.
"From my perspective, I saw what I needed to see," NFL Media draft expert Mike Mayock said of Wentz. "Big arm, good location, got rid of the football."
Wentz (6-foot-6, 233 pounds) completed 6 of 10 passes for 50 yards, but was victimized by a pair of drops, one each by Ohio State's Braxton Miller and Cincinnati's Chris Moore. On his final pass of the game, Wentz connected with Ohio State tight end Nick Vannett for 29 yards down the middle of the field for his longest completion. A play later, he was sacked and stripped for a fumble by Baylor defensive end Shawn Oakman on his final play of action.
"I thought it went alright. Obviously, we didn't score any points, so that's always a bummer," Wentz told NFL Network. "... No matter if you're coming from the SEC or FCS, Division II, Division III, you've got to make a jump. The speed of the game is going to come that much faster. Obviously, this is just a step. It's going to be even faster than this (in the NFL)."
Wentz, one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2016 NFL Draft, will next get a chance to show scouts his skills at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis in a little more than three weeks.
Looks like he could...
