DeMarcus Walker

[listopencil]

Well what they need to do is make up their mind. Either he loses the weight and changes or keeps gaining weight for the benefit of the team.

He already went through the process of putting the weight back on and spent, basically, a second rookie year learning his position last season. He showed impact in limited reps at DE. He's poised to either become a valued addition to the team or a busted draft pick.

I was excited about him his rookie year. The whole Lber experiment always seemed like a bad idea, but that’s Elway making more bad decisions.

I’m excited to see what he’s going to do at DE

I absolutely believe John player a hand in the decision

I know Mr Elway isn’t your favorite person. But please show me what evidence u have that says that was Elways decision?

Just cause u wanna believe it doesn’t make it true.

It would be bad if he didn’t, you think he just drafted Walker without a plan for him?

That would be worse than him having a hand in making him an OLB. He had an idea how he saw him being used in Denver before the draft.

It’s not like they drafted him and got him on the field and suddenly figured he’d be best at 3-4 olb based off a few practices. They had the guys measurables and tape for months.

Walker was drafted to be a DL...IN camp when we lost shane ray and shaq VJ moved him to LB. Not elway. Also, VJ made the stupid comment that he thought Walker looked like a LB coming out of college.

You’re bonkers if you don’t think Elway had s hand in him moving to OLB. Him and VJ for sure discussed it before the draft, which might be an additional reason Elway got him

Then why sign Kasim Edabali and give him more PT? Walker at OLB was a panicked contingency decision after losing Ray and Barrett. And I’m sure the logic went something like well he’s quick for an interior pass rusher at 280, if he drops weight he’ll be a quick edge rusher despite the fact that he’s clearly not flexible enough to play the edge.

Kasim has nothing to do with Walker. I’m not saying Shaq and Shane didn’t contribute to Walker being moved. But you better believe it was in John’s scouting report that he could play OLB in a 3-4.

There was no need to “panick” and experiment with Walker when they could’ve gotten someone off the street.

John most likely drafted him with the idea he was a tweener and he simply wasn’t

Common sensley says link or it didn't happen.

Common sense would suggest the coaches make coaching decisions and the GM acquires personnel. This is not Jerry Jones or Al Davis we are talking about here. Elway has never had a hand in player decisions, so why would common sense dictate that Walker would be the one time he has?

GMs have an idea of how players are going to fit on a roster before they actually make it. If they didn’t then they wouldn’t be doing their job right

Your comments about Elway’s involvement were speculation, which would be fine if not spoken as fact.
