You may want to re check your facts on the wonderlic scores Cambell scored a 23.

NFL Quarterback Wonderlic scores

From what I have heard is a player can study to pass the wonderlic which doesn't necessarily make him smart, 1 thing for sure is that test will never measure football smarts which really comes down to instinct at the position, if you look at those test scores there are a lot of high scores from players who couldn't sniff the field.

Bottom line is the player needs to prove it on the field and Campbell has been far from that, lets hope the WCO which has made many a QB look much better than he really was gets him going.

The initial article I referenced is listed first. I double-checked my facts from reputable/reliable sources.

NFL Draft - NFL draft preview and analysis from Pro Football Weekly

Before I quote a blog from some strategic analyst at a non-profit in Northern VA who used to work for the college paper, I would make sure he has the right info, which he doesn't. I've seen the number of 23 on a couple of other blogs which is probably the average of the three times Campbell took the test. The first time he got a 14, the second a 27, the third a 28.

I guess we'll just have to wait for the season because although Campbell has made some mistakes he has made some very good plays and is making progress and will be at worst a solid NFL QB.

Who cares about this test? Alex Smith scored a 40, was the #1 pick of the 05 draft and he's not NFL material.

I pulled this info in response to people who implied/said that Campbell "lacked brains". Based on the Wonderlic, his scores are in line with some of the top NFL QBs. I would say that the personnel departments of every NFL team care about the Wonderlic or they wouldn't give the test or use it in their player evaluations.

Are there several other factors that go into someone developing into a solid NFL QB, absolutely.
