Default Some Wonderlic Scores of 2009 Prospects

Haven't seen much talk of Wonderlics this year. Maybe there's a more complete list posted somewhere, but there's an article in the Chicago Tribune online with some results of top prospects.

From the article:
Matthew Stafford - 38
Mark Sanchez - 28
Michael Crabtree - 15
DHB - 14
Percy Harvin - 12
Jeremy Maclin - 25
Jason Smith - 23
Andre Smith - 17
Clay Matthews - 27
Brian Cushing - 23

this site has a fun link to take an online Wonderlic Test, so try it yourselves.

I can tell you it is 10 questions and you have 2'30"

and if one get 7 of 10 one made a 35. which was goofing around at midnight and about 40 years since school. not sure how realistic test is.

I took it once and it is not hard it is all a matter of time efficency. Remember these kids actually practice for this test.

Kevin Barnes, DB 41
Michael Oher, OT 19
*******************************
I found these scores particularly interesting.
That 41 might be a record for a DB ?
And I've seen reports that people were concerned about Ohers intelligence and while 19 certainly isn't that impressive (in a positive way), it's really not at all bad either ? More like marginal (worst case description) than a really low score. I have to think Oher acquitted himself very nicely.

It's been a while since I read The Blind Side (which I highly recommend), but the issue with Oher isn't his pure intelligence but that he basically received no meaningful education until he was in his early teens and he has a learning disability. I agree that a 19 is a better than I expected for a guy with all of that working against him, especially on a standardized test like this one.
