acheckeye Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 It would be interesting to see a chart of good players vs. busts and how well they did on the wonderlic test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazello1313 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 has anyone put together any sort of ranking as far as which positions scouts and coaches care what your wonderlic is? it seems like QB would top the list, then maybe O-line, LB, safety? just a guess on my part.

QB and OL are tops where this is important. Positions like DB or RB are less important as they are more tuned on instinct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTSuper7 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 (edited) Matt Stafford scoring a 38 is pretty impressive, but I am also curious to know if there is a correlation between Wonderlic score and NFL success for QBs or OLs even. ETA - Got curious about Wonderlic scores and found out that Eli scored a 39 while Peyton scored a 28. I wouldn't have guessed that...

tazinib1 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 (edited) QB and OL are tops where this is important. Positions like DB or RB are less important as they are more tuned on instinct. But wouldn't a LB that is tagged, for example, the MIKE be perceived as having alittle higher intelligence level than most? I mean he is calling the defensive audibles out there. ETA: I just re-read your post and you didn't even mention LB lol. :kickselfinnuts: Edited March 23, 2009 by tazinib1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 (edited) I'd like to see The Huddle's member's Wonderlic scores . . . Sample test. Got 6 but timed out(33) but I didn't prepare and got out of college decades ago.

detlef Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Sample test. Another sample test 9 of 9 with :40 to spare. Too bad I'm short, slow, and can't kick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geeteebee Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Sample test. Those have to be quite a bit easier than the real thing. I like to consider myself intelligent but getting 9 out of 9 on that wasn't hard. In all the years that players have taken the exam and having only 1 confirmed 50 scored, I doubt all of the questions are that easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big John Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Smells like a job for Big John!! Unfortunately, wonderlic charges clients (Tne NFL being the best known client but they have many other clients too) to give out the full test so they don't make those available for free online, but only give out partial tests based on old tests they used.

Scooby Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 One front office man said he was not concerned about Delmas' score because he plays smart he's a dumb jock. Delmas still could be the first safety chosen. well, in our little mock draft game, we chose this cat..dumb jocks are everwhere.....doesn't mean that can't play well, didn't Dan Marino score a 16?

In all the years that players have taken the exam and having only 1 confirmed 50 scored, I doubt all of the questions are that easy. If only that were true ... Heck, if only more of the DI full scholarship football/basketball players had to meet true academic requirements to get in to college in the first place and had to truly be academically successful maintain their eligibility. Or, better yet, if DI recognized those who can't do either of those as employees of the college and paid them to play as entertainers bringing money in to the college and stopped the farce ... Myron Rolle should be a lot closer to the standard for big-money-sports college athletes rather than the once in decade exception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
