Pack work out Duke point guard (1 Viewer)

DURHAM, N.C. -- Now this would be quite the Lambeau leap.

A Duke spokesman said that former point guard Greg Paulus recently worked out for the Green Bay Packers in advance of the NFL draft.

Spokesman Art Chase said Tuesday that Paulus threw with Blue Devils receiver Eron Riley during a workout last week on campus.

Paulus was a star high school quarterback in Syracuse, N.Y., but hasn't taken a snap since he was a senior in 2004 and focused on basketball at Duke.

The 6-foot-1 Paulus started at point guard for three seasons before coming off the bench this year and helping the Blue Devils reach the regional semifinals for the first time since 2006.

The draft is April 25-26.

In high school, Paulus was a stud quarterback who could have played anywhere he wanted in college, including Miami or Notre Dame (that sounded a lot more impressive when he was being recruited four years ago). He got 53 scholarship offers to play football.

It think it tells you how weak this years QB class is when teams rather look at former high school stars rather than the current college prospects.
