Hakeem Nicks reportedly scores an 11 on Wonderlic test

Posted Mar 23, 2009
Seems the wide receiving corps is especially stupid this year. Michael Crabtree of Texas Tech scored a 15 [on the Wonderlic test], Darrius Heyward-Bey of Maryland scored a 14, and Percy Harvin of Florida scored a 12. Not real good. But don't worry, there was someone who was worse. Hakeem Nicks of UNC wowed everyone with an 11. A score of 10 suggests a person is literate, so at least all of the receivers can read this. (Fan IQ)
