Unraveling the Mystery of the Trevor Davis Pick

Davis is the Cal receiver whose selection made the least sense of any of the Packers’ picks last week.

It didn’t make sense because the Packers were six deep at receiver before selecting Davis and Davis isn’t considered an NFL-ready receiver.

He does bring one thing to the table though.

Speed.

Davis ran a 4.42 40 at the combine. He was clocked with faster times in other workouts.

McCarthy and Thompson wouldn’t admit they wanted to get faster at receiver, but that appears to be the only logical reason you’d make this pick in the fifth round.
