Re: Wonderlic test score
 

According to the unreliable site profootballtalk.com, Young's test score was actually improperly calculated. If it is true, that is incredibly pathetic.

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

it is false. As soon as i saw PFT was involved, i was like, yeah that's probably highly accurate.

Me play football. Me like girls. Me like Escalade. What silly reporter say? Kill silly reporter!

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

Actually, Ive followed profootballtalk.com for the past 3 years, and most of their stories do pan out. If you goto the site today, you can read that Young did in fact score a 6 but the claim was that the test was scored improperly. My question is, if it was scored improperly why did he get to take it again? The retest ended with a 16. If you want confirmation that you are dealing with a dumbass in Young then here's another good draft site:

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

What did Jason Campbell get?

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

Campbell scored a 28 at the combine. But he did score like a 14 the first time he took it so maybe I was being harsh on Young. OR maybe both are dumbasses.

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

Word is anything below 25, and it becomes a concern for the coach's. Unless it's an anomaly, could be a BIG deal. The talk is he may not be able to learn the complexities of the NFL playbook. Colin Cowherd of ESPN was reading some of the test questions on the air today..........................it ain't rocket science. My (average) thirteen year old would have no problems

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

well here is how position by position score on average and normal people in jobs
Offensive tackles: 26
Centers: 25
Quarterbacks: 24
Guards: 23
Tight Ends: 22
Safeties: 19
Middle linebackers: 19
Cornerbacks: 18
Wide receivers: 17
Fullbacks: 17
Halfbacks: 16

The average scores in other professions look like this:

Chemist: 31
Programmer: 29
Newswriter: 26(this does not count because fatass is a dumbass too and drastically pulls down the average)
Sales: 24
Bank teller: 22
Clerical Worker: 21
Security Guard: 17
Warehouse: 15

You have 12 mintutes to answer 50 questions. They get harder and harder. No deductions for incorrect answers. some are multiple choice others are not

short test

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

average for football is a 19, average for all people is 21... so i doubt below 25 is much of a concern... marino got a 16, and i think he was able to learn the complexities of the NFL.

you're allowed to retake it as many times as you want.

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

I missed one on the ESPN page. NICE, I could be a lineman!

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

I took it and got a 27

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

I aced it! I got a 100!

You gotta love this time of year when everyone is checking the Wonderlic guage on each prospect!

cowboys check the wonderlic from the other end, however.

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

reminds me of the s.o.l.'s in virginia, so easy. maybe to do in litte time is harder tho

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

i don't think intelligence tests really affect how people play football in anyway. I remember last year about how everyone was saying Jason Campbell was an idiot and won't be able to grasp the NFL's schemes. At least I hope it doesn't for the future of the Skins.

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

Do they allow pen and paper while taking the test or must it all be done in your head?

So what if he didn't score high on that test ........Brian Greise scored one of the highest scores in the NFL on it.........enough said.........

14 = unskilled labor
6 = borderline retarded

They are saying he really did get a six, then re-took the test, alone. He has amazing physical skills but he is obviously very dumb.

Holla at me........when he's football career kicks off......

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

They apparently let you take the test as many times as you like. If I was drafting high, I might request multiple tests, to see how the scores average out.

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

the first time he was shooting spitballs and not taking it seriously(according to john clayton)i dont understand the correlation between scoring high and being a good player.what do you think dexter manley score was?i read where d mcnabb scored a 12

It's just another metric to gauge the players by.

Why not test them?

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

[QUOTE=ST21]Holla at me........when he's football career kicks off......[/QUOTE]

I don't think it necessarily means he will be bad, but you asked why it's important. If he is borderline retarded i think that's important.

Its just that in theory if you score high on the wonderlic you'll have an easier time reciting stuff like "Twins Zebra X Slant Right 22 Charlie Alert 82 Jet Switch On Two On Two" Then 20 seconds later be able to change the play. On top of that they expect you do that about 50 times every Sunday. Thats not to say you won't be able to do it, just that it'll be easier.

However with D-Lineman it doesn't matter as much b/c their position is the more physical then mental. Trust me I played it and its not nearly as complicated as O-Line.


Kinda like what Monksdown said earlier
"Me play football. Me like girls. Me like Escalade. What silly reporter say? Kill silly reporter!"

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

"It is rumored that at least one player has scored a 1 on the test."

I would think that if one guessed on every question, they'd get more than one correct!

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

LOL! That reminds me of this guy I went to college with who ACTUALLY went to class every day and got a 0.2 GPA. You'd think he would have gotten a 0.5 based on attendance alone!

Re: Wonderlic test score
 

I got a .75 one semester long, long ago, LOL needless to say I didn't even try, I stopped going to classes the last 6 weeks or so and skipped all the finals.
