I looked up a 6 and it means he cannot spell his whole name, just part of it.

First of all, he scored a 9. Second, it is just one way to evaluate a player as a prospect.

Everything else about Peterson SCREAMS top 5 pick. He has been bulletproof up until now in terms of his physical skills, the game tape, and his background (...not a thug).

If the Niners get a chance to pick him at #7, they should consider themselves lucky.

This is best case scenario for the Niners. Anything that pushes him down helps us get him.

I thought he got a 9, not a 6.

IDK, I just read the article on the front page linked in.

I really dont care cause he is so talented. I just wanted to see everyone freak out a little.

wouldn't care if he scored a one, I'd still take him.

Playing CB is not the same as QB or OL, where intelligence tends to be far more significant. In many cases, CB's are simply locked onto a receiver; they don't have to make many reads, or learn an extensive playbook.

So, the number, while frighteningly low, it should not impact his play.

Not freaking out so much. The guy can play and he has no off field issues. I hope he drops to #7.

AJ Green score was even lower than Peterson

Two words... Neon Deon. He walked out of the wonderlic test that the Giants were administering and said "Ill be gone before you guys get to your pick."

The Wonderlic doesn't matter for positions that deal more with athleticism. Look at Cromartie... dude can't even remember the names of his children and yet is a decent corner.

There are so many factors that come into play in learning development... primarily interest level. If a player doesn't care about the test then he won't put in the time to get ready for it. But take that same player who loves football and tell him to learn a defensive scheme and they will know that sh*t inside and out.

I am pretty sure Gore scored a 5ish so end of story on Peterson.

Depends on what level of competition and the position you play. Definitely not applicable to all levels or all positions, though.

What did A.J. Green score?

Originally posted by lamontb:
AJ Green score was even lower than Peterson

Green was on the "juggling team" at his elementary school, telling The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he learned to juggle balls and props as early as second grade. Green said it helped his hand-eye coordination a lot from an early age. He's able to juggle four balls and various props such as bowling pins.[1]

He also started riding a unicycle in fourth grade.

He must have been busy working on career skills.
