MOBILE, Ala. -- With one day of Senior Bowl practices in the books, no player is drawing more attention than North Dakota State quarterback Carson Wentz.

After measuring in Tuesday morning at just over 6-5 and 233 pounds, Wentz participated in the North team's practice run by the Dallas Cowboys coaching staff. The nearly two-hour session was similar to how the Cowboys conduct practice during the season.

According to Wentz, the style wasn't much different from his time at NDSU.

"To be honest, it was actually pretty similar, the way it's up-tempo and you go from one drill to the next drill," Wentz said. "That's how we do things at North Dakota State, so it was really nothing new for me."

The Cowboys came away impressed with what they saw from Wentz, a player they could consider taking as high as fourth overall in April.

"I thought he was outstanding," Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said. "Obviously one of the things they're doing too is serving them up quick, there's a lot of pressure, but hell of a job."

What would it mean to Wentz to get drafted fourth overall by the Cowboys?

"I'm not real concerned about who drafts me, to be honest right now," he responded during a lengthy Q&A session Tuesday evening. "That's for all you guys writing the mock drafts and all that fun stuff. I'm just really excited for the opportunity to continue playing. I think the beautiful thing about it is people want to pay me to play the game I love. How awesome is that? So whatever team it may be, I'm excited for the opportunity."

Here are some other highlights from Wentz's time with reporters on Tuesday.

On being coached by Jason Garrett and the Cowboys coaching staff:

"It's been good and obviously it's just beginning. I've only had a chance to have two different meetings with those guys, so I'm looking forward to learning more from them. But you can tell that they're knowledgeable about the game and I know at the NFL level every coach is going to be, so I'm excited to work with whatever team."

On if he has told Garrett that he feels right at home in North Texas after quarterbacking NDSU to consecutive FCS national title game victories in Frisco:

"I have not told him that, but I think they know about our little run in Frisco, Texas."

On how big it is to work with Garrett and the Cowboys staff:

"It's a tremendous opportunity. I think we've seen teams fall in love with players at any point during the draft process and this is just the first step in that process. Obviously, a great opportunity for me to show not just my physical abilities, but my mental side of things that the Cowboys staff can see at a whole other level."

On the experience of going from FCS player to possible top 5 pick:

"I think it's a lot crazier for my family and for the people back home. I think everyone has seen it in the news or in the paper and all over the place, so they're probably going a little nutty. But for me, we're so busy and I'm working my tail off, obviously here but also back in California where I'm training and everything. You don't really have time to focus on all that. I'm really just trying to block it out because I know at the end of the day if I'm working my tail off every day the results are going to come. Come draft day it will all work out."

On the attributes he has to be a first-round pick:

"I just think I have a unique set of physical abilities both throwing the ball and also with my feet, being able to make plays [with my arm] and also run the ball and move the chains with my feet. I also believe that I have a pretty good mental edge with the [pro-style] system we played in at NDSU. I feel like I can understand defenses and read things pretty well."

On being an outdoorsman:

"I'm big into hunting, getting out and getting away whenever I can. I just enjoy the outdoors. I hunt a little bit of everything, as much as I can in North Dakota. A lot of deer and pheasants. In the winter, coyotes, the whole nine yards."

On the kill he's most proud of:

"I got a pretty big buck a couple years ago, but I just love getting out. Whatever it is I'm doing, even if it's just going out hiking or whatever, I just love getting out and seeing the world."

On the QB he has tried to emulate:

"Growing up, I was a Vikings fan just because they were the close team. I always loved watching Brett Favre. I loved his grit, his competitiveness, his gunslinger mentality and I loved the way the guy had fun out there. You'd see him just running around throwing touchdowns and he wasn't all about himself. He's sprinting down there giving guys hi-fives and the energy he brought, I loved every minute of it."
