Truth is . . . Walker is the most aggressive and best tackling CB we have. He will do better with the 1st team (as nickel and backup CB) . . . sometimes we see a player get burnt but its b/c another player didn’t do his part. Now having say that . . . I like most fans dispise his attitude on the field – he needs to quit runnin’ his mouth and “Play like a Raven” !!
