Tebow not so smart

Still, if he falls to us in the second round (unlikely but...) I can see Richardson making the move to bring in the new face of the Panthers. A running, mobile QB on a run first team with one good receiver makes some sense. Terry Bradshaw was no brain either but as he said, he only ran 4-5 plays...

 

Another overrated element of predraft screening, even the article says as much.

 

For Tebow's sake I hope he doesn't become a Panther. The Panthers is where enthusiasm goes to die and becomes just playing for a paycheck. Steve Smith is the only exception. Until the attitude of this team changes it will always be what it is, just another NFL team being used by the other teams that Want to win every week.

 

the panthers have too many needs than to waste their first pick on Baby Jesus

 

According to the Post, the average Wonderlic score for an NFL quarterback is 24.

Tebow scored a 22, big deal, he's 2 points below the average. I don't want him, but still that's kind of stupid in itself when McCoy and Clausen only scored 3 points and 1 point higher, respectively.

Bradford was highest with a 36, which is great, compared to other NFL average scores.

 

Mr. Drysdale letting you surf the internet on your lunch breaks?

 

There is not enough time to finish the test unless you're super smart.

To score high you must go through and answer all the common sense questions first, then come back and do the math questions.

 

Yeah, 12 minutes to take it, and the average (I think they mean this as an average) score for a CHEMIST is 32. Dan Marino and Vince Young both only scored a 15. Apparently, you could have a genius level IQ and still not score that high.

Average scores for other professions

While an average football player usually scores around 20 points, Wonderlic, Inc. claims a score of at least 10 points suggests a person is literate.[8] Furthermore, when the test was given to miscellaneous people of various professions, it was observed that the average participant scored a 24. Examples of scores from everyday professions included:

• Chemist – 32
• Programmer – 29
• Journalist – 26
• Sales – 24
• Bank teller – 22
• Clerical worker – 21
• Security guard – 17
• Warehouse – 15

 

Somehow I don't think Tony could score the average security guard score of 17.

But he does have the cut and paste and link thingie down now.

 

Didn't SF RB Frank Gore score one of the lowest scores ever? Something in line with being a pinecone? Maybe in his retirement he can work his way up to a bankteller
