- Offensive tackle: 26
- Center: 25
- Quarterback: 24 (a quarterback's intelligence may affect his passing performance in the NFL even if it does not in college) Guard:
- Tight end: 22
- Safety: 19
- Linebacker: 19
- Corner back: 18
- Wide receiver: 17
- Fullback: 17
- Halfback: 16
- FACTOID: While an average football player usually scores around 20 points, The Wonderlic, Inc claims a score of 10 points suggests a person is literate.
No one is saying oline are dumb. We are talking about what the position requires of them.

Let's not get started on the ineffectiveness of standardized testing, or the inherent biases contained within.

This also has nothing to do with what is required of each position.

Combine tests revealed Montez Sweat has a pre-existing heart condition.

The doctors still allowed him to participate in the Combine and deemed it "low risk." But teams will probably have to do a little more due diligence on his medical condition before the draft.
