[Murph]

Even turned down another team.

That's nice to hear.

I had forgotten that those guys were originally signed right after the draft last year. I bet Gantt is right about the same for this year.

yep...its a good sign when veterans want to be on your football team. Shows that they think this team is close to something special.

What game was it that Darwin Walker got plugged in on one series and made three straight plays to force the team 3 and out. My memory fails me. I know it was at home though.

I belive it was the KC game

Thats good to hear. We might have to keep him.

[SorthNarolina]

I want him back but we need to quit looking for diamonds in the rough along the line, we need fresh legs in a bad way

I'd be just find if we drafted two DTs with our first two picks, whatever they are

“He has all the tools you want in a corner — big, long arms, fast, good feet,” Lucas said. “He has everything you want. He can press, he can play off, and he has the right attitude.

“That's something he's been taking pride in, going out there getting better every day. He doesn't complain at all — he really doesn't say anything — he just goes out and does his work and when he goes out there and plays scout team, that's when he's working.

“He's going to be a very good corner when he gets his opportunity to play, and I truly believe that.”

A lot of praise for C.J. Wilson... Gamble, Marshall, Wilson might be our CBs for years to come.

[Mr. Scot]

I wouldn't mind giving Walker one more shot, at least in camp.

[Sam Mills Fan]

There are plenty of free agent defensive linemen still on the market that are better than Darwin Walker. Resigning him wouldn't be the smartest decision.....so I'm sure we'll be resigning him today after we extend Jake another five years of course.

[Brandon]

He's good to have on for depth and I'm sure we could sign him cheap. Having veteran guys who have been in the league on the team is ALWAYS a good thing, when teaching young players it helps to have lessons from not only the coaching staff but also the players themselves.

[Woodie]

Walker was solid for us prior to the accident, but his injuries kept him from being much of a factor afterwords. He'd be nice to bring back as depth, however, we would still need a penetrating all-around DT. IMO, a lack of pressure up the middle was our biggest problem last year.

[MadHatter]

Agreed. Kemo did his job as a run stuffer. However, we did not have that disruptive force collapsing the pocket from the inside....ala Jenkins.
