Carson Wentz showing improved mechanics in Eagles' OTAs
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz looks stronger and is showing better mechanics during OTAs, the Philadelphia Daily News' Jeff McLane reports.
McLane specifically said Wentz's "spirals are tighter" and none of his "20 or so throws" sailed, which was a problem last season. Normally this could be dismissed as offseason fluff, but Wentz did work with 3DQB gurus Adam Dedeaux and Tom House over the offseason. "It's really just cleaning up some things from an efficiency standpoint," Wentz said of the work. "No mass overhaul, nothing really major...a lot of it having to do with footwork." With better weapons and an intact offensive line, Wentz should take a step forward as a sophomore.
Wentz threw 14 interceptions over the final 13 weeks of the season. Among the 39 quarterbacks with at least 100 drop backs, he ranked 25th in Passing Net Expected Points per drop back.
