    In fairness to Wentz, they used to say the same about Tom Brady, especially in his first 2-3 years in the NFL. Although, I believe they took the reigns off of Brady in the 2002 season. Plus, Brady had a ton of memorable come from behind victories from 2001 to 2003.

    Wentz, maybe not so much, but he did show a ton of poise in a lot of games. He's a pretty good decisions maker, and has really good pocket presence.

    I think Wentz is going to be a great NFL QB, to be honest. Is he going to be as good as Brady/Rodgers/Manning/Brees? IDK, but I think he'll be with Dak/Carr/Wilson/Ryan/Big Ben etc... Maybe that second tier level.

    If you put Wentz on the Cowboys, I think he might be as good, if not better, than Dak. I just don't think the Eagles have talent on the offensive side of the ball yet, like Dallas does.

    What's funny is I said the same thing about Brady from 01-06. I said, if he had a legit receiver, he'd dominate.

    @Boos is probably right. Simmons main opponent is Embiid if we're talkin about a king of Philly sorta situation. Embiid comes off as a lot more charismatic ready to be a big name celebrity almost whereas to me, Simmons comes off as an actions speak louder than words kinda guy

    He'll be a stud, and will probably be the best all around player on the team, but Joel Embiid will also be an all-star and his whole persona is already loved in Philadelphia as well as league wide among NBA fans. I'm speaking strictly about popularity wise, not necessarily skill

    2016 is a year where we could potentially be introduced to the next two cornerstones of Philadelphia Sports. Which of these two players will impact their respective teams the most? The Eagles mortgaged a large chunk of their future to move up for Wentz and we all know the Sixers were going to take Simmons since the lottery.

    As a Philadelphia fan, it's definitely an exciting time for me. Philadelphia has always been a Football first town so I'm more inclined to say Wentz. I don't see Bradford making it through the whole season again and I don't think they're going to try and run Chase Daniel the rest of the games that Bradford doesn't play.

    It could be argued that Simmons will make more of an impact because he will be a starter off the bat and will have more chances to show himself.
