The Doug Pederson quarterback tour is finally making its way to Pennsylvania.
ESPN’s Adam Caplan reported that California’s Jared Goff, North Dakota State’s Carson Wentz and Mississippi State’s Dak Prescott will have pre-draft visits at the NovaCare Complex, while Pederson will see Penn State’s Christian Hackenberg for an individual workout.
#Eagles still on QB evaluation trail: Christian Hackenberg private workout Friday. Wentz, Prescott, Goff also have pre-draft visits.

I typically downplay visits and workouts, but I think you have to take them seriously in terms of what #Eagles are doing with QBs.

The Eagles are definitely serious about drafting a quarterback. They saw four of them last week, including Goff on Monday, Stanford’s Kevin Hogan Tuesday, Wentz on Wednesday and Memphis’ Paxton Lynch Thursday. It’s also been confirmed that they took Wentz and Goff out to dinner.
Philadelphia hasn’t hosted a quarterback on a visit since 2013. Each team is allowed to have 30 pre-draft visits.
