Competition came early for Packers receiver Ty Montgomery
Stanford wide receiver Ty Montgomery escapes a tackle in a game gainst Utah in November.Green Bay — Ty Montgomery lined up everywhere at Stanford. One play at slot receiver. One play at running back. Another play as a Wildcat quarterback. Then he was just a blur, zipping past tacklers on a kick return.
With the 94th overall pick in last weekend's NFL draft, the Green Bay Packers added versatility.
"I just have this mentality," Montgomery said, "that there's nothing I can't do. I wholeheartedly believe in my ability to do anything from any position."
One reason, of course, is his skill set. The wide receiver is a muscular 6 foot, 215 pounds with 4.5 speed and a 401/2-inch vertical.
