not that bad a pickup, especially when you consider virtually every wide reciever in the league has a bit of narcissistic trick in him. i don't think it's great. i'm just saying it's next to impossible to find a WR with a ridiculous amount of baggage. the only wideout free agent this offseason that didn't have at least some reputation for being a slacker or a selfish jerk was issac bruce. true?
basically, i just shrug my shoulders at some of these signings. i thought the tommy kelly contract was far more puzzling. it's like this: they were a ton under the salary cap and just tossed money around like rice at a wedding reception. when the smarter move would have been to say "you know, let's lock up that cornerback nobody throws on, anymore."
but as for walker. there was no way that any draft pick in the second round would be an instant no.1 reciever. for that matter, jerry porter isn't really a no.1 reciever. and ronald curry ain't, either.
the only way the raiders address WR and other holes is by trading down, which could happen if someone gets an itch for mcfadden. but would you wager on it?

| The guy can barely walk. This is a horrible signing. Seems like Shanahan gets over on the Raiders again.
