More Walker to Denver Rumors per the Denver Post

[BooHoo]

Get at least a 2nd Rounder for him.

If we can get the 31 pick, make the deal asap!

I think we agree on this one, just expressed it differently I guess. I think Walker is close to being labeled "T.O. jr."

No F-ng way.

Guy didn't even hold-out last training camp, you may recall.

I think people around the league view this situation a bit differently than Packer fans. Brett Favre interjecting himself into that contract dispute was the start of a deep bitterness. Walker has not been disruptive in his years at GB. Walker will get his change of scenery.

Lelie is all right, but he can't run a route to save his life. He can run simple post patterns and flag routes, but who can't? He is a tall target that can get down field. Just expect a lot of Cory Bradford like plays.

I would still take Lelie, and a first day pick, just to be done with Walker. Simply put it is bad for business.

It has been rumored that Lelie wants out of Denver and to compete for a #1 position somewhere. With the Walker situation and if the Pack trade for Lelie and a 1st day pick, is Lelie better than Driver?

Lelie matched Rod Smith for TDs in '04 (7) and had a better yrd/catch (20.1 vs 14.5) and gave up only 60 yrs on -15 catches! In '05, Lelie only had 1 TD (vs Smith's 6) and 42 rec for 18.3 avg (vs Smith's 85 and 13.0). He's been up with Rod Smith since '02 - if he comes to GB with Driver - who's better and why?

Driver has had better stats than Rod Smith in TDs and just slightly with Avg and Rec. I think Lelie has more upside given his faster start (vs Driver) playing with a worse QB (Favre makes his recievers better!).
