theeohiostate Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 (edited) Rumor is he scored a six on the wonderlic and it's circling the combine. http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm Will this allow Culter to take his place in the top ten picks and have Young slide aka. Aaron Rogers last year? Edited February 26, 2006 by theeohiostate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theeohiostate Posted February 26, 2006 Author Share Posted February 26, 2006 hello Aaron Rogers 1341893[/snapback] At least Rogers scored a 35, Young getting a 6 means his mispelled either his first or last name as they are worth 6 points each Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budlitebrad Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 If the rumor is true, this kills his draft spot. He'll be going around 10 at the absolute highest and that's being extremely generous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubfoothead Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 He's never needed to be smart before. Talent has gotten him where he is. Football is complex but its not valve replacement surgery. He's probably no stupider than McNabb and Donovan's doing jst fine. We learn what we need to.

We learn what we need to. 1341987[/snapback] McNabb got a 16, so he's more than twice as smart as Young In fact, it's the lowest or tied for the lowest QB score ever. I'd say he's pretty dumb and this will kill any chance he had to be a top pick. He just lost a HUGE signing bonus.

Rovers Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 This could actually drop Young out of the first round. A six is basically functionally illiterate. Most QB's are around 30 or higher. Here is a sample test from ESPN... http://espn.go.com/page2/s/closer/020228test.html I'm sorry, but if you can't get ten on the sample test, yer an idiot. Young, is apparently, REALLLLLY dumb.

isleseeya Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 This is still a rumor , correct ? any confirmation that it is a fact ? I think until it comes out officially it may not mean much at all , yet p.s. i think Einstein would have been a better kicker than QB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably that fake Robert Smith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This theory has gotten some of us closer to 50 than 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goopster24 Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 (edited) I hate Young and this confirms that he is a moron. I dunno if teams value this test pretty highly, maybe more so than several years back such as Dan Marino who got a 14. I don't see this dropping his value too much though; teams aren't that smart to understand the fact at hand. They get greedy when they see his college tape.

Robash Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 i dont know whats funnier the 6 or this from that link... JAVON STILL WANTS HIS RAISE Not yet six months removed from a torn ACL, Packers receiver Javon Walker still wants more money. Walker has one year left on his rookie contract, and he's due to earn $650,000 in 2006. "Obviously, I think the salary is a disservice to him," agent Kennard McGuire said. Last year, Walker's former agent, Drew Rosenhaus tried to parlay a breakout 2004 season by Walker into a big-money deal. There was talk that he wanted Randy Moss money, and there were whispers of a holdout. As it turned out, Walker didn't stay away from training camp, primarily because (as we understand it) he realized that a holdout would likely require him to pay back a chunk of his bonus money. The team's concern in 2005 was that they wanted to see Walker duplicate his 2004 effort. Instead, he suffered a season-ending injury in Week One. So it's unlikely that the team will be interested in paying him huge money until Walker can perform at a high level. And although Bob McGinn and Tom Silverstein of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel suggest that "f a new collective bargaining agreement can’t be reached, Walker might benefit from no-holds-barred free agency in the uncapped year of 2007." Wrong. One of the biggest misconceptions among players (and, apparently, the media) is that the same old rules will apply during free agency in the uncapped year. But that's not the case. Among other things, players will only be eligible for unrestricted free agency if they have completed SIX years of service, not the usual four. Because 2006 will be only Walker's fifth year, he won't be an unrestricted free agent. Instead, the restricted free agency rules will apply, and the Packers will be able to limit his movement in 2007 by slapping on him one of the three levels of RFA tenders. We're putting together a full list of all of the differences that will apply in the uncapped year. Suffice it to say for now that it won't be the bonanza that many presume it will be.

Or at least this is the really easy part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider.Nation Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I doubt that he scored a 6. If a 6 drops this guy out of the first round like some here have suggested, how was he so succesful at the Collegiate level? How can a QB be so good and so talented that he's projected 3rd overall. And than after taking an "IQ" test, he is now too stupid to play that same position he's been so succesful at?!? He's too talented to drop out of the top 10! Smarts or none. Aaron Rogers did not drop to 24 because of his score. He was within like 6 points of Smith on that same test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
