Packers | J. Walker drawing interest; Packers may not budge
Mon, 27 Mar 2006 21:14:34 -0800

Tom Silverstein, of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, reports Green Bay Packers WR Javon Walker would like to be traded or cut, but so far the Packers have not entertained the idea of parting ways with him, in part because it would set a bad precedent for other players unhappy with their contracts and in part because his value has decreased because he's still rehabilitating from the knee injury. At least one AFC team has started doing homework on Walker, probably to see if it's worth making the Packers a trade offer, but it's unclear whether the Packers will even consider dealing him. Packers' general manager Ted Thompson didn't dispute that teams have showed interest in Walker, but he said it stemmed from the receiver's recent public comments and not the Packers shopping him.
