6'5" frame could definitely add some pounds and possibly contribute at one of the DE spots. I like the pick.

Kid started to peak at the right time, his best two games were the last two games of the season.

6th rounder on a gamble that might pay off. Round 6 is always a gamble anyhow - why not pick a guy who might be finding his upside at the right time?

6th Round: Jarius Wynn, DE, Georgia
The Packers went back to defense with the first of their two sixth-round draft picks, selecting Georgia end Jarius Wynn with the 182nd overall pick.

A junior-college transfer, Wynn (6-foot-3, 275 pounds) probably projects as an end in the Packers' new 3-4 scheme.

Combine results ...

40 Yard Dash : 5.08 seconds
Bench Press : 19.0 reps
Vertical Jump : 31.5 inches
Broad Jump : 107.0 inches
3 Cone Drill : 7.4 seconds
20 Yard Shuttle : 4.58 seconds

UPDATE, 3:25 p.m.: Here's what Wynn has to say ...

* On his bowl-game performance: One of best performances.

* On being a Packer: "It's going to be very exciting."

* Played any linebacker? Not really.

* Work out as linebacker? "No sir, I haven't."

* What do you weight? 273.

* Expecting to get drafted here? Didn't know. Was up in air. Heard from third all the way down. "It's just a blessing to get to this point. This is every child's dream."

* What heard from Packers? "No sir." Had mentioned gaining weight.

* How much can he put on? Biggest been is 283, and that was pretty heavy. "I'll do whatever it takes."

* How end up at a junior college? Coming out of high school, grades weren't up to par. Lacked a class senior year. Got back on right track at juco.

* What is Georgia Military College like? Wear uniforms, have to be very disciplined. "I really learned a lot from going there."

* Why go there? "Where I'm from, a lot of people go there" but not many get through and accomplish dreams.

* Feel like best days are ahead? "Yes sir. With God on my side, I can do anything. I'm coming in to work hard. ... I know I'm going to be a better player. That's how I feel, deep down inside."

* Came on late in senior season, and why? Yes.

Seems like a good guy but a long shot. Wish him the best.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

According to Draft Countdown using measurables from the Combine he is only 6'2.5". That doesn't seem to be the type of DE we're looking for. Not saying anything else, just thought it strange.
