NFL Network Analyst Picks Carson Wentz as Top QB in 2016 NFL Draft

North Dakota State quarterback Carson Wentz has one last game to play at the collegiate level: the Reese's Senior Bowl, which takes place this Saturday, January 30th, in Mobile, AL.

Scouts from all 32 NFL teams will be attendance and many of them will have their eyes locked on Wentz, who is projected to be one of the top quarterbacks taken in this year's NFL Draft.

One analyst, the NFL Network's Mike Mayock, even tabbed Wentz as the top quarterback in this year's class, ahead of bigger names like Cal's Jared Goff, Memphis' Paxton Lynch, and Michigan State's Connor Cook:

But, the dark horse happens to be my favorite. There's a kid by the name of Carson Wentz. North Dakota State, 6'5", 233 lbs., highly athletic. This kid's got a hose. He can throw it anywhere, makes any throw. He broke his wrist this year.

Remember, he's a non-Division 1A quarterback. Now, the last time we had a non-1A quarterback to go in the first round was Joe Flacco in 2008 and that worked out pretty well for the Baltimore Ravens.

By the end of the process, I think Carson Wentz could be a top ten pick.

Wentz will share the field with some of the best athletes in college football this Saturday on the NFL Network. Kickoff takes place at 1:30 p.m. CST.
