As typically happens just prior to the NFL Draft, the Wonderlic Exam scores for the top prospects have recently been leaked, which give a fascinating and somewhat controversial insight into one phase of the evaluation process that teams use to make a final determination on whether or not to select a player.

Here is a look at how the top prospects in the 2017 NFL Draft class, including Christian McCaffrey, Leonard Fournette, Dalvin Cook, and Garrett Bolles, among others scored.

Bolles will likely be chosen in the first-two rounds of the NFL Draft, but his score of a nine on the Wonderlic exam, could give some teams pause.

Garrett, is widely considered the top prospect in this year's NFL Draft class and posting the highest Wonderlic score at his position should only bolster the chances that his name is on the Cleveland Browns' draft card as the No. 1 overall selection.

Of the three first-round graded running backs (Fournette, McCaffrey, Cook), is it any surprise that a Stanford product produced the highest Wonderlic score?

Perhaps no other position has been more scrutinized when it comes to Wonderlic scores over the years than the quarterback position, due in part to the rigors of the position when it comes to making split-second decisions during games as compared to the rapid-fire nature of the 50-question test. However, the scores have not always been an indicator of NFL success at the most important position on a football team.

It is worth noting that Josh Dobbs is a Mechanical, Aerospace and Biomedical engineering Major at Tennessee, which goes to show how at times the Wonderlic exam can have its limitations when it comes to an indicator of scholastic and football aptitude.
