One theory on that, is way back then they didn't take it seriously and blew it off. They got drafted anyway.

Now, if you screw up the wonderlic you lose millions. Most major QB prospects work with mental coaches who try to teach them how to score high on the test, and they take practice tests. So a lot of these guys are now trying as hard as they can to score higher than a 25-26. If you are really trying and still score below a 25 today, then that may be indicative of not being smart enough to handle the position.
