Young's legs scramble, brain scrambled
When Vince Young announced weeks ago that he would not throw for scouts at this weekend's NFL Combine, we sure didn't think the former University of Texas quarterback would be dominating the headlines as the event winds down. But just as his legs and arm helped the Longhorns win the NCAA national championship in January, it's now Young's noodle that has him potentially slipping from a top five pick in April's NFL Draft to possibly the bottom of the first round and maybe into the second round. Young's reported unbelievably low score – six out of a possible 50 points – on the Wonderlic test has the NFL scrambling to gloss over the situation. Reports now say the QB's score was 16 not six. We've even heard Young was allowed a do-over – and spotted 10 points. (Ok, we made up the second part of that sentence.) The Wonderlic test is employed by the NFL to measure cognitive ability, and the results are supposed to be confidential. However, that didn't stop someone with knowledge of Young's results from leaking the information to the media Saturday. Our newest favorite football news Web site, profootballtalk.com, says the leaker will soon be slipping on something pink.
