Jevon Walker Trade

The Green Bay Packers sent disgruntled WR Jevon Walker to Denver today for a second round draft pick. The pick was #37 overall, which they went on to send to Atlanta for three other picks -- a second-rounder (47th overall), third rounder (93rd) and fifth-rounder (148th). #47 wound up being Boise State offensive tackle Daryn Colledge, and #52 was Western Michigan wide receiver Greg Jennings. Good trade, or not enough in exchange for a former and perhaps future Pro Bowl WR?

Re: Jevon Walker Trade

I know the Packers wanted to get rid of him as fast as possible but I think he is worth more than a second-round pick. Don't forget that he was injured last season!

Cool Re: Jevon Walker Trade

I think it was good. The Packers have a million holes and are not too close to winning now anyway. They can start to re-build now. Remember, Aaron Rogers is waiting in the wings when Mr. Favre decides to hang it up.

Walker is a talent...but three picks are three picks...memories of another Walker deal...Herschel Walker...upon which the Cowboys built their future...

Re: Jevon Walker Trade

Vastly different kind of deal from the Herschel trade. Jennings may eventually wind up being a good #3 WR, and Colledge may someday start, but I seriously doubt that any of these guys develop into the kind of talent that the Cowboys got with Minnesota's picks.
