Why Carson Wentz could be the biggest gem of this year's NFL Draft

Taking a quarterback in the first round of the NFL (http://mashable.com/category/nfl/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) Draft is a nearly all-risk endeavor. Quarterbacks taken first overall rarely pan out to be Peyton Manning. Too often, they turn out to be expensive, franchise-dampening headaches of JaMarcus Russell-sized proportions.
Yet a scarcity of riches defines the quarterback position in the NFL. Teams are more than willing to toe-tip a high ledge in hopes of nabbing someone who will eventually work for them. It’s a cruel game, really — but it makes one name stand above the rest before Friday's NFL Draft.
