New Mexico's Woes Continue

Bad Jocks has been all over this story, and they've got their confirmation from the NFL Draft Almanac: Apparently Marcus "New Mexico" Vick scored a lowly 11 on his Wonderlic test at the NFL combine last month. That's slightly better than Vince Young's badly graded score, but somehow still lower than his actual score. To quote a scout: "[The scores] indicate that either [Vick and Young are] functionally illiterate, mentally handicapped, or simply didn't care enough to take the test seriously."

Not that New Mexico didn't have enough ugly marks on his resume, but now we're looking at a guy who:

• Has had nothing but off-field troubles. • Is slower and has a worse arm than his brother. • Stomps the legs of defenders when they're lying on the ground. • Is fortunate to be able to write his name in the ground with a stick.

Yeah. We're pretty certain the Buzzsaw is gonna draft him. Second round, we bet.
