Brian Brohm and Matt Ryan reportedly both scored 32s on the Wonderlic Test. Teams generally look for quarterbacks to score above 20 on the exam, so these are stellar marks for the cerebral signal callers. Joe Flacco reportedly scored a 27, while Chad Henne got 22 of the 50 questions right. Source: Chicago Tribune
Makes sense. Surprised Flacco scored that high and Henne so low. Wouldve thought the opposite but I dont know either one personally. Just my impressions of them
I'm with you, i would have thought the same too. but maybe for me its just because im more familiar with henne, being a michigan fan. and i'm not really familiar with flacco. Personally i dont know how much i care about these scores though, i'd like to think that in the right system, a QB with enough talent can be sucessful.
To be brutally honest, I like Ryan OR Brahm or even Flacco more than Beck. Beck looks fragile and tentative and seems to lack the subtle arrogance needed to be a star QB in the NFL.
Well I am assuming Beck will change that this year (assuming he starts). He has thrown something like 4000 passes this offseason ( I got that stat from a poster on FH, give them credit for it). I think he will eventually build up his body and be a fine QB in this league. I think he has all the tools.
i like beck i was just saying if the fins decided to take a qb i hope it would be brohm/henne i cannot stand ryan i just think he is vastly overrated and for some reason brohm seems forgotten by a lot of people he could have been a top 10 pick easy last year if he came out early and now he is projected 2nd round i believe i think beck can be the starter we need some oline help which is why jake long would be a good fit but i also like chris long i would be very happy about both i also like boston college OT gosder cherilus i have seen some mocks us taking him with pick #32 he is a big guy 6-7 314 pounds but very athletic
Surprised about Henne. Really thought that was one area where he needed to shine and Michigan's not a bad school too in terms of producing cerebral QB's (they are one of the top undergrad universities, of course).
