Packers add corner Frank Walker

Category: Packers — Patrick Stumpf @ 12:08 am

Tuesday marked the first signing for the Packers since the start of free agency. Frank Walker, a 6th round draft choice out of Tuskegee, signed a 1 year deal with Green Bay, that is believed to be incentive laden. The Packers are looking for a 3rd corner behind Al Harris and Charles Woodson, and they are hopeful Walker will be that guy. Walker is still somewhat of a project, and at 25, still has plenty of time to improve. Coming out of college, Walker ran a 4.33 40, but slipped into the 6th round most likely because of his over-agressiveness. Packers’ fans can only hope that they didn’t sign the second-coming of Ahmad Carroll. Look for Walker to compete for a nickel back spot along with Patrick Dendy, Jarrett Bush, and Will Blackmon come Training Camp.
