Javon Walker was a player I thought had the potential to have a comeback year. With the recent turn of events, I’m not so certain now.
Walker was cut by the Broncos after injuries, and signed to a good sized deal by the Raiders. The Raiders are coming into this season seeking some offense. With last years number one pick taking over the quarterback duties, they were looking to get him some good options. Walker was to be the number one in Oakland this year, but that could be in doubt after his Las Vegas mugging.
Keep an eye on Walker, I don’t think the extent of his injuries are known yet, he could be 100% come the season, but then again, he could miss time. If Walker comes into camp healthy, and can stay healthy all season, he should put up decent numbers. I don’t know that he will put up all pro numbers, but he could be a decent bye week replacement or number three wide-out, with some upside potential.
