Which will it be?<\/p>\n

When the Los Angeles Rams are on the clock April 28 at Roosevelt University\u2019s Auditorium Theatre in Chicago for the 2016 NFL Draft, which quarterback\u2019s name will they send in as the No. 1 overall pick?<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know (it will be a quarterback),\u201d ESPN draft guru Mel Kiper Jr. said April 14 on his weekly podcast. \u201cWe just don\u2019t know which one it will be.\u201d<\/p>\n

Will it be Cal\u2019s Jared Goff?<\/p>\n

Goff threw for 78 touchdowns in his final two seasons with the Golden Bears and is touted by Kiper as the \u201cmost gifted pure passer in the draft class.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has good size, vision, pocket mobility and very good accuracy, especially on passes requiring touch,\u201d CBSSports.com draft analyst Rob Rang told Medill Reports.
\nBut there are questions about Goff\u2019s relatively thin frame (6 feet 4, 215 pounds), small hand size (9 inches) and inconsistent play on the field, including a nightmarish five-interception performance against Utah last season.<\/p>\n

So how about North Dakota State\u2019s Carson Wentz then?<\/p>\n

At 6-5 and 240 pounds, Wentz is bigger, faster and stronger than Goff, but also faced a lower level of talent at FCS powerhouse NDSU than Goff\u2019s Pac-12 opponents.<\/p>\n

Rang said Wentz has proven enough in the predraft process to warrant being taken first.<\/p>\n

\u201cThough there are obvious concerns about the level of competition Wentz faced, the physical talent and composure under the spotlight he demonstrated at the Senior Bowl, Combine and Pro Day has been very impressive,\u201d Rang said.<\/p>\n

The drafting history of Rams coach Jeff Fisher benefits Wentz, as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile coach of the Houston Oilers, Jeff Fisher bet and won big with Steve McNair out of Alcorn State with the No. 3 overall pick back in 1995,\u201d Rang said, \u201cso he may be more willing than most to gamble on a \u2018small school\u2019 quarterback.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whomever the Rams don\u2019t pick will likely be taken one spot later by Philadelphia. The Eagles sent five picks (No. 8, No. 77, No. 100; a first-rounder in 2017; and a second-rounder in 2018) to Cleveland last week for the No. 2 overall selection plus a fourth-round pick.<\/p>\n

Tale of the Tape<\/h1>\n

Jared Goff
\nHeight: 6-4
\nWeight: 215 pounds
\nAge: 21<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Strengths:
\n\u2022 Displayed exceptional accuracy and arm strength
\n\u2022 Showed consistent toughness
\n\u2022 Produced at a high level despite a weak offensive line at Cal<\/p>\n

Weaknesses:
\n\u2022 Small frame and hands
\n\u2022 Flashed signs of inconsistency at times, especially against Utah in 2015
\n\u2022 Not super athletic<\/p>\n

Fun Facts:
\n\u2022 Has a golden retriever puppy named Leo
\n\u2022 Grew up a fan of Joe Montana and the San Francisco 49ers
\n\u2022 Dad, Jerry Goff, played for the Montreal Expos, Pittsburgh Pirates and Houston Astros as a catcher in the 1990s<\/p>\n

Carson Wentz
\nHeight: 6-5
\nWeight: 240 pounds
\nAge: 23<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Strengths:
\n\u2022 Extremely athletic for his size
\n\u2022 Big hands
\n\u2022 Played in a pro-style offense at North Dakota State and was consistently successful, winning two national titles as the starter<\/p>\n

Weaknesses:
\n\u2022 Inconsistent footwork
\n\u2022 Didn\u2019t consistently face high-level competition
\n\u2022 Sidelined for eight weeks in 2015 because of a broken wrist<\/p>\n

Fun Facts:
\n\u2022 Grew up in Bismarck, North Dakota
\n\u2022 Has several tattoos, including one on his wrist that says, \u201cAO1\u201d (Audience of One)
\n\u2022 Has reportedly never made a \u201cB\u201d in a class<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“You have to be very comfortable with both of those quarterbacks and believe they have a shot to be great, Pro Bowl-caliber,” Eagles vice president of football operations Howie Roseman said a news conference last week. “It’s hard to be great if you don’t take some risks.”
\nIt\u2019s only the fourth time the top two picks have been traded.<\/p>\n

\u201cTeams are desperate for quarterbacks,\u201d former Rams safety and current NFL analyst Matt Bowen told Medill Reports. \u201cJared Goff and Carson Wentz aren\u2019t (ready to play in the NFL), in my opinion. They both need time.\u201d
\nAnd the Rams are certainly one of the most desperate.<\/p>\n

They ranked last in the NFL in passing yards (2,805), completion percentage (57.7) and touchdown passes (11) last season.<\/p>\n

In an attempt to improve their situation, the Rams parted with a first-round pick (No. 15), two second-round picks (No. 43 and No. 45) and a third-round pick (No. 76) in this year\u2019s draft, along with a first-rounder and third-rounder next year.<\/p>\n

Bowen said losing all those picks will hinder L.A.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you throw Carson Wentz in the field on the Rams with not a lot of talent at wide receiver or offensive line, what are you doing?\u201d Bowen said. \u201cWho (are) you throwing to? Who\u2019s blocking for him?\u201d<\/p>\n

Rang disagrees.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the quarterback selected at No. 1 turns out to be a franchise quarterback,\u201d Rang said, \u201cand by that I mean be a consistent starter who helps this club reach the playoffs, the trade up will have been well worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whichever quarterback the Rams take will have big implications for not just one, but two franchises that finished 7-9 last season.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m glad I don\u2019t have to make that decision,\u201d Bowen said.<\/p>\n

Draft Storylines<\/h1>\n

Which records will Ohio State break?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Ohio State has a deep crop of prospects, including defensive end Joey Bosa, cornerback Eli Apple, linebacker Darron Lee, offensive tackle Taylor Decker and wide receiver Braxton Miller.<\/p>\n

NFL analyst Mike Mayock said during the Senior Bowl that the Buckeyes could have \u201cseven or eight guys in the first 50 picks,\u201d which would be historic.<\/p>\n

Records Ohio State could break include:
\n\u2022 Most players selected in the first round, 6 (2004 Miami)
\n\u2022 Most players selected in the first two rounds, 7 (2000 Tennessee\/2008 USC)
\n\u2022 Most players taken in a seven-round draft, 14 (2004 Ohio State)<\/p>\n

When will Paxton Lynch be taken?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The top two quarterbacks, Jared Goff and Carson Wentz, are basically locks to be picked in some order by Los Angeles and Philadelphia, but that leaves the third quarterback, Paxton Lynch, in an interesting situation.<\/p>\n

Several teams are potential suitors for the Memphis product. San Francisco, Cleveland, the New York Jets and Denver are all in the market for quarterbacks, and a few teams with aging passers, namely San Diego and Arizona, could give Lynch a look, as well.<\/p>\n

Where Lynch falls will be one of the more dynamic subplots of the first round. He could go as early as No. 7 overall to the 49ers or even fall to the second round.<\/p>\n

Will slow 40-yard dash times affect the top wide receivers?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

While there are some intriguing wide receivers in this year\u2019s class, including TCU\u2019s Josh Doctson, Baylor\u2019s Corey Coleman and Ole Miss\u2019 Laquon Treadwell, the group as a whole didn\u2019t impress with their speed at the NFL Combine.<\/p>\n

Wide receivers averaged a 4.56 40-yard dash time, the slowest for the position group in 11 years.<\/p>\n

The real question is: how much will it matter? ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay still had Coleman, Treadwell and Doctson all going in the first round of his April 21 mock draft.<\/p>\n

How will the trades affect the top of the first round?<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n

The Tennessee-L.A. and Cleveland-Philadelphia trades will shake up the first round, assuming the Rams and Eagles select quarterback. Some other potential fallout:
\n\u2022 Will anyone else move up? Cleveland has shown it\u2019s willing to move back in the draft. Would a team such as the Jets be willing to strike a deal with the Browns if quarterback Paxton Lynch is still available at No. 8?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Ole Miss offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil was supposed to be the guy at No. 1 to Tennessee, but will the Chargers snag him at No. 3? How far could he fall?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Assuming L.A. and Philadelphia pick quarterbacks, Jacksonville at No. 5 has a guaranteed shot at one of the top three defensive players (Jalen Ramsey, Joey Bosa or Myles Jack). Who falls to them and whom do they pick?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Whom do Cleveland and Tennessee take? Both traded back in the first round, but will all those extra picks pay off? Will the Titans, who already have Marcus Mariota at quarterback, regret passing up Tunsil to protect him? Will the Browns regret losing a chance at Goff or Wentz, and could they take Lynch?<\/p>\n
