Great article for a very basic comparison on quarterback testing and their ability to translate college success into the NFL.
here is the link http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/john_lopez/07/08/qb.rule/index.html

Now my question is does anyone know where Alex fits on this list, and no this is not a bash Alex thread. I am in fact Pro-Alex. I know he scored high on the wonderlic but am not sure of the rest.

Anyone have these stats?

Also, where does Nate fit in? We can already see where Carr fits on this list.

I would put him in the Cutler, Rothelisburger, Brees group in that article.

I didn't know the wonderlic test carried so much weight into the career, but I guess that's why teams look at it. I wonder if there was anyone that scored very high on that test, but it didn't translate to the field.....besides Smith who had a lot of other things not in his favor.
