The Philadelphia Eagles are a testament to having a plan for a young quarterback. Simply selecting a passer at the top of the draft does not guarantee he will be a good quarterback. A young quarterback must be properly brought along and catered to. The focus of the team must become building up the young passer to be what he was drafted to be. A quarterback must also grow with the offense, and vice versa.

Before drafting Carson Wentz in 2016, the Eagles hired Doug Pederson to be the head coach, Frank Reich as the offensive coordinator, and John DeFilippo as quarterback coach.
