Did the S2 TEST take CJ out?

Yeah man I'm tired of these tests, and won't even share the actual scores.  Y'all remember the Wonderlic test?  What happened to that one?

Another fun fact, QBs who scored low on the Wonderlic test:  Dan Marino, Jim Kelly, Donovan McNabb, Terry Damn Bradshaw!

That statistic about no low scoring prospect from the last 7 years making it is quite damning. If Stroud did perform badly in the test than I can imagine that all but rules him out of being our pick.

I just think its funny this test is going to become the end all be all for some people with people like Zuerline saying stuff like that, but no one is actually able to show the results from the last 7 years to prove it.

And we don't even know what would be considered a low score.  We don't know if the ones who scored low for the past 7 years, were 5th rounders or later.  We have no context of anything.

The Wonderlic was a general intelligence test. The S2 is supposed to just test how fast you process visual input and how many moving objects (think players) you can keep track of at once.

Not sure how it has been validated, except people are saying Brock Purdy is the poster boy for it.  Still, it is an interesting concept.  In fact, they should put a mini S2 in your car and if you don't pass it after a certain hour it calls an Uber for you.

Unlikely since the only thing that’s been said regarding Stroud and the test is that ALL the top QB prospects scored very well on it.

It was an interesting Zuerline interview it almost felt like his sources in the Front Office asked him to start pushing that it wasnt their fault on Bryce and talk people out of Stroud.

But it does make sense that front office would like the S2 a lot.

      The Pro Bowl is Unwatchable

      I think the last time I watched the Pro Bowl was that year Sean Taylor blew up that poor punter. LOL

      1 shot 1 goal tracker

      I don’t go back and look at the espn but there live it definitely said 1 shot 1 goal when it happened. I guess they had not added them yet. Still allowing goals that early is rough. Blue line is a total disaster still. Even with Slavin back. Miller and Nikishin keep making mistakes after mistakes.

      Post senior bowl PFF mock draft

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I generally disagree with the concept of picking a position because of value early in the draft. For instance, if there's a really good safety, RB or ILB at pick 10, I'm choosing him over a project WR or DE. Better players make the team better. A bunch of ok players will give you an ok team. The number 1 goal of the draft should be to improve the overall talent on the team. Not to fill positions of need.  Deciding beforehand that you're picking a LT in the first or second round because Ickey went down is not the way to improve the team. Now if Dan has similar grades on 2 or 3 players and one happens to be a LT, then yeah go for it. But don't pass on your guy at ILB because you have a gap at LT or need to improve the pass rush with a DE. When those guys don't pan out then you haven't improved your team. But that LB could have been a franchise cornerstone for years to come. See Luke Kuechly and Christian McCaffrey.
