Lynch vs Wentz, what are your thoughts?

[NeonNinja]

Paxton Lynch is bigger, more accurate, looks more durable, has played against better competition, has a bigger arm and has the higher ceiling.

SAFEST QB IN THE DRAFT


While Wentz is a late riser coming on because of some serious over-hype, with a slighter frame which equals exactly what we don't need, another injury prone QB.
NIGHTMARE #4 PICK

I would call Goff the safest QB in the draft. I also don't agree with most of your breakdown. Wentz is actually more physically put together than Lynch.

I went onto ESPN College Football Stats, & clicked onto "QB rating". Over 40 QBs were rated, but Wentz wasn't even on the list. Huh? Lynch was 16th. Brandon Doughty, whom I prefer over Wentz, was first with a 176.5 score. I like Lynch better due to his NFL arm. He can make all of the throws, & gets the ball out quicker than any QB in the draft. His WRs were forced to catch the ball half of the time as a matter of self defense. Saw him make a 70 yard TD throw with the game on the line. Nice to have that kind of arm. He is much more athletic than any 6-7 QB I've ever seen. He will take time to get used to taking snaps under center, but he's a hard worker, so I see no problem with that. Needs to gain about 20 lbs. of muscle, but I still like him as the best in class.

Its very hard for me to say because what is really going to seperate them in my eyes is whats going on upstairs

I havent heard any negatives from either in regards to football character

That's the real key. Lots of guys have the physical ability but not the mental ability
I like all 3 of the top guys but to me you go with the guy who has the best mental game and is a student of the game
And those answers will come out much later in the procesd

I'm curious because I see a lot of people raving over Wentz lately. I understand lots of the fascination over Wentz had to do with the fact that we could've possibly stolen him in the 2nd round. But he seems to be surging as of late and we'd probably have to spend a high pick on him anyway. Meanwhile, Lynch seems to be the forgotten man. I don't know too much about either one, but I'm curious to get people's opinions. Those that love Wentz, do you love him more than Lynch, and if so, why?

They seem to have almost identical physical attributes, speed, arm strength, both have high intelligence. The two possible knocks on Wentz (played against lower competition and is 2 years older than Lynch/Goff) isn't a knock on Lynch. So what makes Wentz so much better than Lynch? Lynch has all the tools that Wentz has, played in Division 1-A, and is 2 years younger. What am I missing?

I don't care as long as they get a franchise QB of the future. Right now, though, my money is on Wentz because he would have time to sit and learn.
