So Walker was drafted first overall, has tremendous size, and an athletic freak.  If he starts most of this year I think 8 sacks his rookie year should be the bare minimum to be considered a good rookie season.  Yes I know pressures, QB hits, and all the other Jive factor into the equation but the true great pass rushers finish the QB. Being drafted first overall carries a ton of weight and we need to see that pay off.  What say you?

Honestly would be shocked if he got more than 5. He's not a rusher, nor does he get effective pressure vs college tackles, he's going to struggle to do anything of substance in the pro game in the pass rush dept. Might be pretty good vs the run, though.
