The Green Bay Packers have worked out Duke University basketball player Greg Paulus, according to a league source...

A four-time all-state football player in New York, Paulus is listed at 61, 180 pounds on the Duke basketball roster.

Paulus set six New York state passing records, including career passing yards (11,763). He threw 152 touchdown passes in 45 career games, leading his high school to a 42-3 record with him under center.

Paulus was the starting quarterback in the U.S. Army All-American game, also garnering All-American football honos from Parade Magazine.

Hmmmm...I wonder if we're working him out for a QB spot? Maybe as a WR?

I think a lot of basketball players end up as tight ends.

At 6'1" and 180.. no TE in his future.. project at QB? Interesting no doubt.

Oops, I misread that 180 as . . . something else. 180 is light for a QB. He sounds more like a WR or a safety.

It's just as likely that this move is purely about smoke and mirrors to keep other teams guessing. Everyone knows that it's possible Crabtree or Sanchez or both will be available at #9.

I never liked Paulus. I'm actually not a fan of Duke period.

Rotoworld has this guy working out as a WR or a CB. Interesting...

I'm sure nothing will come of this. Usually a project type player like this has a very low chance of signing.

Not that I think this, but it hasn't been mentioned. Are they considering him to run the wildcat here?

That would be the best thing to do with him if we signed him...but I don't see us signing him.
