Re: IF Tua falls....
JP ~ WPT-R is an IQ test and there isnt much preperation that a person can do. Also, if you could and did teach someone how to score better on an IQ test, the results would be meaningless. They didn't have the IQ to sort it for themselves.
For what it is worth, if I am about to hire someone for $400k+ a year.. I want them to take the WPT-R, IQ, Color Blind test, Rorscach Test, they may even take the Pepsi Challenge. |

Anecdotally speaking, many folks test poorly because of anxiety(s) of the examination - taking practice exams, familiarity with the question types, will yield better testing results... Obviously you can't fake intelligence (though some do try, especially congressmen), ![]() ...but many players are intelligent, but don't test well because of a lack of familiarity with those exams... |

Re: IF Tua falls....
If he falls to 24 take him in a heartbeat. If I were to move up because of a qb slipping it would be for Hebert. He has the skills. Tua has the team around him making him look better than what he really was

Re: IF Tua falls....
Listen to a podcast the other day and I think it was a PFF analyst saying Herbert is the bust QB. He misses something like 4 or 5 times the open throws the others do. Not drops, bad routes but outright misses his receivers. From what I've read he will turn the ball over like crazy in the pros.

Re: IF Tua falls....
He won't fall to the Saints. The best possible outcome in the draft for Tua and the Saints would be if he did. Tua could sit a year. The Saints would have an All-Pro for the next 15 years. I wish the Saints would pull a Davenport type deal to draft DT Brown myself.
