During a press conference Wednesday, May 24, Green Bay Packers director of player personnel Reggie McKenzie was asked where he stood on the debate between Houston Texans DL Mario Williams and New Orleans Saints RB Reggie Bush. McKenzie said, "Mario Williams. Even from day one when a lot of the mock drafts were saying that Mario Williams was going to be at No. 5 to Green Bay, half the mock drafts were saying that Green Bay was going to have Mario Williams before all his pro days and everybody figured out that this guy is an unbelievable football player. But that lasted all of a couple of days, thinking that we were going to have a chance to get Mario. If he would've landed at the No. 5 pick, I'd still be dancing in the streets of Green Bay. He's the one guy that we think that could turn a defense around. He's a young guy and he's got a lot to learn, but I think that's the type of player that you're willing to learn with." McKenzie interviewed for the Texans' general manager vacancy on Wednesday.
