It's like a paint by numbers thread.

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
 

Stephen Hawking probably scored 50 on the Wonderlic - - if he ever took it. So what...

Look folks, the Wonderlic is a test that tries to measure - inaccurately to be sure - a person's innate learning capability. That is ONE part of being a good NFL QB/player. For a QB, it is probably very important. But it is not and will never be as important as the ability to throw a football accurately with velocity and/or the ability to move around when there is pressure from the defense.

A "stupid" QB would not be a good thing to have if you want to run any kind of offense that requires quick analysis of the defense and subsequent decision making.

A "smart" QB would not be a good thing if he cannot throw the football.

The challenge is to find one that can throw well AND is smarter than a cheese sandwich...

Matt Stafford is super smart.

yah fitzpatrick also went to harvard so thats probably 99 % the reason why he did so good on it

We should have a Warpath Wonderlic Test.

Here are some answers found in the Warpath Wonderlic Test:

"Vet Minimum"
"Colt Brennan"
"Marcus Mason"
"Build through the draft"
"Colt Brennan (again)"
"I would trade Jason Campbell straight up for Chris Simms"

" Draft Mack"
"Cushing, Cushing, Cushing"
and my favorite. "I would trade Campbell and our first and third round picks for Cutler straight up."

But if you circle answer D-Snyder's lap dog, you get an extra 10 points.

I think you meant Cutler here, and yes that'd be an answer too. LOL.

Oh man. Good one. That was one of the hardest I've ever laughed on this site. I still can't believe BHA said that. Oh wait, yeah I can.

Seriously though folks- to call all these guys who score high on the Wonderlic "smart" is, um, dumb. Google "Wonderlic" and you'll see how easy they are. I'm sure I'm not the only one around here who could have come close to a perfect score in the friggin 6th grade.

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
 

Alex Smith scored a 40. ;)

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
 

In defense of those that have not done so well on the Wonderlic though, it's my understanding that the test is often (always?) given after an intense day of physical workouts because it's designed to test your mental acuity (that's a word right) when your physically drained

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
 

Didn't Marino have a crappy score?

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
 

I've done a couple of the wonderlic samples. The questions are easy enough with one or two that require some thought. The real trick is to stick to the time limit. 20 questions in 5 mins. means 15 secs/question. That's a pretty quick pace. Most can be answered in less but all it takes is 3 or 4 that require some thought to screw it up.

I think he had a 15. Here's a website (about 2 yrs old) with Wonderlic scores from QBs since the late 80s.

I'll trade 53Fan and Jason Campbell for Jay Cutler and Chris Simms. LOL.

Re: Ryan Fitzpatrick Scored a 48 on his Wonderlic Test
 

Marcus Vick scored an 11! He's dumber than Vince Young. :D

Randel El even took it, scored a 17. Yikes.

Thanks and I'm sure we will. I just took a few sample Wonderlic tests and was very surprised at how easy they were for the most part. Now I'm not going to say that doing well on this test is an outright idicator of how good a player will be, but I'd have to say that if I were the one signing the 10 million dollar bonus check, I think I would want to be confident they'd have the ability to endorse it. Seriously, its hard to imagine what Percy Harvin's deal is. Looks like quite a few of the top WR prospects scored pretty low. Makes me wonder what Thomas' and Kelly's scores were...:)

Vinny, quit posting on the message board and either find us a right tackle or improve your radio show.

Britton from AZ is looking like a better and better target if we can trade down. He's super smart, super strong, and fights his guts out.

If he is lucky he could one day be a core Redskin like James Thrash!

P.S. Can someone explain to me how the team is better off with Thrash than Evans? If they had cut Thrash they could have used that cap space and locked up Evans. Then I wouldn't have to check 5 websites 10 times a day to see if Daniels has signed.

Ridiculous
