This test is still in because it is a remnant of the past...hey we've always done it this way. And, there are still a few old relics that like it, as there are some of this board. End of the day if you believe someone is not smart and they score a 13 you get confirmation. I dunno, I feel like you are calling me a relic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think many people will question whether or not higher scores mean better QB s. The test wont help you predict who will be the next HOF QB. However, it should at least help flag a prospect who isn't playing with a full deck and probably should be avoided. Would you honestly draft a QB in first round who scored a 6?

Would you honestly draft a QB in first round who scored a 6? I mean their study pretty conclusively showed that there is no correlation between wonderlic scores, low or otherwise, and performance. I don't know Lamar Jackson personally, maybe he has a learning disability that specifically makes him worse at test taking but doesnt impact his overall cognitive ability (like dyslexia). Or maybe, like the article proposes, the wonderlic doesn't accurately project intelligence. I wouldn't take a QB off my board just for a low wonderlic score. If they had a bad interview and didn't appear to pick up the white board quickly that's another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokinES3 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 As soon as I heard Jackson attempt to form coherent sentences I took him off my board. The 13 just reinforces it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the kind of thing agents look out for. Did himself no favors there.... I wondered why he was ok with having mommy as an agent. I also wondered why mom's answer wasn't "absolutely not"... I no longer wonder. Edited March 30, 2018 by SmokinES3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malazan Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I just want to remind everyone that Fitzpatrick scored a 10293746563726261 out of 40 on the wonderlic and he has gone on to be the most successful QB of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Mo Claiborne got a 4. Jeez! Didn't anybody talk strategy with the dude beforehand? Look Mo just answer C on all 50 questions. He likely would've gotten into the Lamar territory, maybe even Kelly and Bradshaw If lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
