Wonderlic doesnt matter to me. If someone cant read or write but has played QB since age 3 and eats, sleeps, and sh*ts knowledge of the game I'd take him over someone that scores a 50. Not one question on the test is about reading defenses or football period. who cares

Well it seems most people here and around the football world thought Mallet was a semi retard and that deterred them from liking him.

Did you hold that opinion of him and do you still?

I don't think people thought he was a retard as much as they did that he just comes off as an asshole.

I really like him. My only fear with him is he comes off as a Jeff George type. Probably not fair but just some of his comments to the media and stuff.

But the talent is there. He can make throws that some NFL QBs can't even throw.

I never met him so I never wondered about how smart he was. I've never heard the media question his intelligence or ability to read defense, but I heard he likes to go on skiing trips(cocaine use) and has a great arm. Hope he's not like the guy from the "The Last Boy Scout", if he is atleast he'd move the chains;)

Is he possibly taken ahead of Cam pending Cam's Wonderlic score?

It is possible but I don't think likely. But I do see a situation where Mallett is off the board by 10 or 12.

Anything could happen.

Cam's upside IMO is higher than Mallett which is why he will likely go higher.

yeah because how many qbs in the league are big statues.

Tom Brady isn't exactly a track star.

Slow-footedness doesn't worry me if a guy can read a defense fast enough to get the ball out of his hands before rushers get to him.

If you look up the stats, you'll find the "statues" tend to take fewer sacks than the runners.

There are reasons I don't want Mallett, but that isn't one of them.

      yeah, XL didn't do anything actually week 2 like the toe thing week 1.  Dave can't scheme him up a play.  Those go horrible (like the handoff or the screen that wasn't really even a screen).  Nothing was there.  as for the rest, XL just isn't a good enough WR for his route running to shake himself open on some predictable routes.  Most targets to him were off target or thrown to be contested balls.   I will say this, XL does not play to his size though when a ball is up in the air.  He doesn't seem to actually have any sort of advantage for a contested 50/50 ball.  That's really a skill set more than size thing.  Some dudes just go up great.

      I watched a breakdown on XL recently, maybe it was here, but I’m less critical of him afterwards.  He showed every touch he had against AZ, and most of them were doomed from the start.  And I know it seems easy and convenient, but I think it all starts and ends with Bryce.  Until we have someone who is a threat to throw the ball downfield, guys are gonna keep loading up the box and being super aggressive blitzing and closing out on tackles because they have no consequence for NOT doing so.  And then a lot of the targets he got against AZ weren’t even on target.  Much like with those jump balls Bryce threw to Renfrow, just because you get your hands on it doesn’t mean it’s catchable ball.
