Besides his last year on the eagles, Wentz hasn't been too terrible in the NFL. His melt down during the last game last year was bad but statically has been decent for all but one year.Wentz isn't the biggest but he's one of the most unique. From Super Bowl and maybe Pro Bowl? to a journeyman fill in until that team can find their next real QB.

Agreed. He hasn't exactly lived up to the hype he had early on, but he's nowhere near the biggest bust of the last 10 yearsBesides his last year on the eagles, Wentz hasn't been too terrible in the NFL.

As a Rams fan since the 'Greatest Show on Turf' years...
Greg Robinson
Last 10 years, tho.A little outside of the time frame, but I submit JaMarcus Russell
1st overall pick
23 Interceptions
25 Fumbles
65.2 QB Rating
31 games played (25 starts)
$31.5 Mill guaranteed
This. Here are top 15 career passing yard list and the round they were drafted. Yes there are 5 number 1 overall picks but also later ones including Brady who many consider the best ever went in the 6th roundRex Grossman was another 1st round Bears QB bust.
I agree that finding a franchise QB in the draft is extremely difficult.
Solid candidate as well. I went with Robinson as he flamed out as both an NFL tackle and also as a drug smuggler (twice).Or is it Jason Smith?...
Edit:
Wow. He was 2009 draft. I'm old.
Royce White was 16th and there is no question he was a bust.
I'm simply looking at who produces starters. Nobody is prolific.Who are we counting Hurts for here?
And is Mayfield a great QB?
As Janny noted, nobody has consistently produced great QBs.
There are 40 QBs who have earned All-Pro honors and the most for one school is probably
The once highly lauded QB class that 4 years later looks rather pedestrian.Josh Rosen
I could be wrong, but seems like Wentz suffered a pretty bad injury at the end of year 2 (or maybe early year 3?) and just hasn't been the same player since. It does seem like it's all mental for him though.Besides his last year on the eagles, Wentz hasn't been too terrible in the NFL.

That dude was basically collecting social security by the time he played his first NFL snap. Very weird.Brandon weeden was a weird one too
