Dak Prescott, Carson Wentz & Jared Goff: Why situation matters at the quarterback position

Any time you get a group of starting quarterbacks from the same draft class, comparisons will follow. Debates get more heated when two of those quarterbacks go in the first two picks of the draft – something we saw in 2016 with Jared Goff and Carson Wentz coming off the board at picks Nos. 1 and 2 to the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles. Throw in a division rivalry between two fanbases that don’t hold a whole lot of love for each other (the Eagles with Wentz and the Dallas Cowboys with Dak Prescott), and things can get out of hand, especially given that Wentz and Prescott have been relatively evenly matched to this point in their careers.
