Re: Wonderlic - How do you compare to Lamar Jackson or...

(4) His demeanor & approach to the huddle.
(5) When breaking down plays, can you tell me "who is the primary? Who is the secondary?" Check downs at the line of scrimmage.
(6) Can he speak the game?
At this level, you can't win simply on athletic ability alone. It's what is between the ears.
If he can do those things effectively and consistently ... and he's your best option (BPA) @ 27 ... take him and feel good about the pick.
At some point, the Saints will need a QB. #9 has spoiled us but he's approaching 40.
Just maybe Taysom Hill is that guy...
