## Transcript

With the second pick in the 2016 NFL draft, the Philadelphia Eagles select Carson Wentz, quarterback North Dakota State Carson Wentz is headed to the city of brotherly love. The Philadelphia Eagles set the former North Dakota State quarterback with the number two overall pick. In Wentz, the Eagles get a QB with size but not necessarily the experience. As a fifth year senior, he only started two seasons but in those years he was able to bring two SCF championships to North Dakota State and ends his collegiate career blowing from over 5, 100 yards With 45 touchdowns against only 14 picks, Wentz is headed into a situation where he may have to hit the ground running, with reports that Sam Bradford is looking to be traded.

There may not be much time to settle into the QB role. [ BLANK_AUDIO ]
