Doc Brown Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 Lamar Jackson also scored a 13. It's possible this hurts Tua given interested teams can't interview him in person to test his football IQ because of the tomhanksvirus. 1

Qb is really the only position I think the wonderlic could/should be a factor. That and maybe Center. Essentially it’s measuring how quickly one processes information, as I understand it. 2
BuffaloRebound Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 Somebody trying hard to lower his draft value. Hopefully he didn’t post rap lyrics to twitter when he was 15.
Bangarang Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 I hate the Wonderlic stuff so much. I think it is beyond pointless. 2

As long as you have the mental ability to memorize a playbook I wouldn't be too concerned at other positions.

Gugny Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 Since 2000, not one QB who's scored less than 16 has proven to be successful for more than a year or two. 4

Having worked as a consultant with a group who developed an innovation tool (which I love and have sold worldwide), all of these tools are subjective. You count on people to be ‘one way’ and to be educated in the same manner, etc (I can extrapolate but I’ll leave it at that). I’ve never studied the Wonderlic or taken it but I can share this: I have interviewed hundreds of people and every single one was different than they appeared on their resume and/or on given tests. It’s one piece but not the only piece. From my experience, the personal interactions coupled with back story mean FAR more than any test/personality test. Just my opinion. 2

It’s never going to be a deciding factor. It’s just one piece of the puzzle. The fact they still administer it means it is still used in evaluation. But not meant to tell the whole story.
Lieutenant Aldo Raine Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 Ryan Leaf no doubt for me. I thought he had it all, NOPE!
