Poll: Which of the following best describes your outlook on Travon Walker ? This poll is closed. |

He's not an edge rusher. Put 20 pounds on him and move him inside. | 10 | 8.33% | |
Still has work to do as a pass rusher but I see improvement. Let's see how it goes. Inside stunts are enough to get him matched against guards. | 37 | 30.83% | |
He's going to be a beast. I trust the process. | 31 | 25.83% | |
Bust | 27 | 22.50% | |
I wish we'd just switch to a 4-3, leave him outside and put his hand in the ground. | 8 | 6.67% | |

Travon Walker: 2nd Year Thoughts Etc (merged)
|
At this point, it seems pretty obvious we picked the wrong guy. We should have taken Hutchinson. I still think Walker will be a decent contributor, though. I look at him being kind of a Rashan Gary type. The Packers drafted Gary in the first round and he didn't do much of anything for two years. Packer fans are still trying to convince themselves how good he is. Like Walker, he makes the occasional splash play, but he goes long stretches where he is nearly invisible. Disappointing, but not a total bust.
What I try to tell myself to make it easier is that if you average out the value we got with both of our first overall picks those two years, we still came out way ahead. Trevor is the type of player who doesn't come along very long, and we were extremely blessed to be in the position to get him when he did come along. If Walker only turns out to be a slightly better than average player, we are still killing it if you average out two picks. ![]() |
