Better than Morris Claiborne I bet
Claiborne gives birth to a four on the Wonderlic

The NFL has kept the Wonderlic results under tighter wraps than usual this year. Or maybe the media has had enough other things to keep itself occupied.
Regardless, the first eye-opening score has leaked from the 2012 edition of the 50-question Wonderlic test. Per multiple league sources, LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne scored a four.
Yes. A four. Out of 50.
Six years ago, quarterback Vince Young initially got a six. Re-scoring of the test bumped it to a seven. A next-day Mulligan moved it to 13.
Finally, Young has someone at whom he can point and laugh.
The joke, however, continues to be on anyone who thinks that all college athletes are also students. Plenty of them aren’t. They’re minor-league football players who have no choice but to wait at least three years until they get a shot at joining the NFL.
How else can anyone explain a person who presumably has found a way to avoid failing out of college getting such a low score on a basic intelligence test?
And that gives rise to a more important question. What did LSU actually do to keep Claiborne from failing out of school?

Remember when we all loved the Animal and somebody would've instantly posted here:
Well, what would you score on the Wonderlic? 33? Yeah, I'd get a 34.

I had to take a Wonderlic as part of an application process once. I was annoyed they didn't release the results.

I'm sure you scored somewhere between Claiborne and BMW.

I believe I've seen an online version out there after the last prospect bombed it

Yeah, I found one online about 5 yrs ago.
Also, iirc, it isn't just a how many you got right thing. again, iirc, it's timed and they count how many you got right until you miss three and that is your score. So if you miss the first three and get all others right, you get a 0. Again, found this online several years ago, so I may be misremembering.

I've seen some wonderlic questions before. Some of them are very easy. Some are sort of challenging, I guess. It seems like some of the questions are designed to trick you into thinking they are asking something different than what they are really asking. You just have to make sure you read the questions carefully. It's pretty easy to see how somebody with millions of dollars on the line could bomb the test due to nerves, and I really don't see why NFL teams care what the athletes score.
