Eagles News: Carson Wentz’s voice has “carried significant weight with some in the front office”

How much influence will Carson Wentz have in the Eagles’ draft? Based on past drafts, plenty - Inquirer
Of the top seven offensive players the Eagles have selected in the last four NFL drafts, six have been represented by the same agency. Carson Wentz was the first, likely setting off a chain reaction, in part, because of his affiliation with Rep1 Football. It may be a mere coincidence, but the quarterback’s predraft relationship with several of the players speaks to his influence with Eagles’ decision makers. [...] Howie Roseman has previously noted Wentz’s involvement in personnel, but the general manager has also emphasized that his opinions were just a small part of the process.
