Check out Mayock’s Carson Wentz-Andrew Luck comparison below:

NFL Media draft expert Mike Mayock says North Dakota State QB Carson Wentz shares Andrew Luck’s ceiling.

“When I look at him, I see a kid that’s as athletic or more athletic than Andrew Luck,” Mayock said. “He’s bigger than Andrew Luck. He’s got arm strength comparable to Andrew Luck,” Mayock said on Tuesday. “He just doesn’t have the experience that Andrew Luck had at a high level coming out of college. So I see a ceiling for this kid similar to Andrew Luck. That’s why I believe in this kid so much, but it’s going to take a little bit of time.” Luck, who went No. 1 to the Colts in 2012 and arrived with more polish, passed for 4,374 yards as a rookie. Mayock added that Wentz has drawn praise from scouts for his intangibles. “His character apparently is off the charts, that’s what I was told by everybody surrounding the Senior Bowl that had anything to do with him. Smart, tough, loves the game,” Mayock said. Wentz is expected to post “Luck/Newton type Combine numbers” later this week in Indy, according to former NFL scout Matt Williamson.

Andrew Luck is one of the better athletes at the quarterback position in the entire league. He’s also very poised and makes very quick decisions when he has a half decent offensive line. Just look at his 2014 campaign that ended in deflated footballs and one game away from the Super Bowl. People don’t even remember the whooping they put on Peyton’s Broncos either.

In my opinion Wentz is much closer to Alex Smith than Andrew Luck. And when you really think about it Alex Smith is not a bad comparison at all.

With that said, what’s the best NFL comparison for Wentz?

Alex Smith seems to be a fitting comparison for Carson Wentz. The only problem? Smith went #1 overall coming out of Utah as a spread option quarterback. I am not sure Wentz can be successful as an option QB. He hasn’t been asked to do it at North Dakota but we’ll see:

Could Ben Roethlisberger be the correct Carson Wentz comparison? I don’t think so but people tend to tweet a lot of random comparisons this time of the year:

You hear some Big Ben comparisons for Carson Wentz due to the size/small-school distinction. Fitting if you like him, bad if you don't.

People also are throwing around the Joe Flacco comparison but that’s too easy. And Joe Flacco has world class arm strength. Until I see Wentz throw it 70+ yards through the air in rhythm, I’ll chill on that.

There is also a small Blaine Gabbert comparison out there. Wentz like Gabbert will come into the league basically with two years of meaningful experience. I think Wentz throws a better ball due to his pocket mechanics but I can’t lie like I’ve never thought of this comparison either.

So what’s the best comparison? Let’s hear yours.
