It's still early in Gute's GM career, but something interesting that we might want to follow going forward.
So far (before the 2nd round of the 2022 draft) Gute has made made 17 selection in the top 4 rounds so far. Of those 17, only 2 of them (11.76%) have been outside the SEC, Big 10 and ACC.
In other words, so far, 88% chance that top 4 round picks will be from the SEC, Big 10 or ACC.
Of course, that percentage will change more (up or down) today as Packers will have some selections in the 2nd and 3rd round.
