JoeF Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 From this week's tip sheet on ESPN.com Buffalo coaches were impressed last weekend with the ability of cornerback Ashton Youboty of Ohio State, the team's third-round choice and an apparent steal in that stanza, to assimilate the coverage calls quickly at mini-camp … --- guess even though the Bills draft room was drunk and disorderly that our blind squirrel front office found an acorn in Youboty.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 I heard that Ko Simpson scored a 10 on the Wonderlic. Can anyone confirm that?
MadBuffaloDisease Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Here we go again. Sorry. If check to see if there's a previous discussion on that.

Nanker Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Sorry. If check to see if there's a previous discussion on that. 690365[/snapback] Naw, don't bother. I don't think there's one in particular on Ko, it's just the Wonderlick thing in general. It's a bit tiresome (to me at least). Frankly, I don't care if any of The Bills can spell "Mother." It doesn't matter. Not for nothing, but OJ wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. Oops, bad analogy there. OJ wasn't the brightest bulb in the socket, but it didn't stop him one whit from dancing through defenses and making his mark on the Pro Football world. I'm just going to roll my hopes up in a neat little package until the season starts and watch the entertainment of the game of Pro Football. I just don't care how many pounds each player weighs, his number, time in the 40 or number of illegitimate children he has, or if he's a pillow biter. I just care about how they can produce on the field of football and if they're entertaining while maintaining some semblence of respectibility. Aw, screw it. They don't even have to be respectible if I've had enough to drink.
Rubes Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Watch out for that. 690367[/snapback] But it's better than finding the squirrel!
Hollywood Donahoe Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 I heard that Ko Simpson scored a 10 on the Wonderlic. Can anyone confirm that? 690358[/snapback] I'm not sure, but I know he scored a 10 on his uniform number.
Arkady Renko Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 What did JP Losman get on his Wonderlic the first time? Note that most scouts disregard the second tries b/c of how much the agents practice them up for the thing as per Peter King of SI.
JimBob2232 Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 office found an acorn in Youboty. Found an acorn WHERE?
Ozymandius Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Media reports are VERY reliable when they're positive about the Bills draft.
JoeF Posted May 12, 2006 Author Posted May 12, 2006 Found an acorn WHERE? 690397[/snapback] Must have had acorn squash for dinner last night.... Or maybe some extracurricular activities under an oak tree....
JoeF Posted May 12, 2006 Author Posted May 12, 2006 thank you 690421[/snapback] I knew things would pick up on this thread the closer we got to quitting time on Friday....
MadBuffaloDisease Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Naw, don't bother. I don't think there's one in particular on Ko, it's just the Wonderlick thing in general. It's a bit tiresome (to me at least). I agree to a point, although I also agree with those who think that the extremes make a player standout. I heard Simpson scored a 10 (speaking of his uniform number HD...) on the Wonderlic, which is an extreme and makes him seem dumb. I hope that's not the case at all, just cause for concern (and possibly a reason he fell to the 4th).

Note that most scouts disregard the second tries b/c of how much the agents practice them up for the thing as per Peter King of SI. 690391[/snapback] i read a while back that jp scored a 31 on the wonderlic. can't remember the exact source but maybe you can google it. i also remember reading that 31 is the average score of chemical engineers. so i guess it's a pretty decent score.
