Agree that the Woderlic can be overrated, but Re: Alex Smith - Singletary loves him. Let's chat again after this season.

Good point with Bailey.... he is a bust just like Gholston from my beloved Jets

Teddy Lehman is another LB in the same mold (reportedly ran 4.3s in college) who the Lions drafted. Speed kills, but it isn't everything.

FWIW (probably nothing), Lehman had the same score in the same year as Eli Manning, 39.

Tim Tebow will be lucky to break double digits next year. From a friend of mine who went to high school with him, tebow is almost retarded. He's a big guy who can run people over (in college at least) but man is he stupid. Then again, you don't need a good wonderlic score to be an H-Back (tight end/runningback/fullback) in the nfl.

Alex Smith's problems are more a matter of injury and personnel changes at the offensive coordinator postion. He'll turn out to be better than Campbell IMO.

^^If that's actually a sample, wow, football players are dumb. I've heard offensive tackles actually have the highest average score of any position, wonder if that's true.

The wunderlic is indeed a joke, look for one online and if you can't beat Stafford you have major problems. It's like the IQ test from Idiocracy.

I'm pretty sure Tebow was home schooled. He went to Nease just to play football.

I know he was homeschool, but knew him at nease. He still popped in and out. Ugh. Wasn't his sat like 890? I don't think SATs are that important, but c'mon, 890?

I'd be willing to bet he scores more than Percy Harvin. At least 20.
