Seahawks claim LEO - D'Andre Walker

[ivotuk]

He's got some good measurabes


Height 6' 2"
Weight 251 lbs
Arms 34 3/8”
Hands 9 7/8”

Wonder why Georgia never started him until his senior season?

Coaches finally inserted him into the starting lineup as a senior, and he led the team with 11 tackles for loss and 7.5 sacks among his 45 tackles in 13 starts.

I was thinking that maybe he was a big small to be an edge rusher, but after looking at other NFL players height/weight/arm length, he's fairly comparable. And after reading Rob's scouting report, he's got the short area quickness.

Any news on Walker's status? I was so stoked about this signing, I was high on him coming out of Georgia.

BumpBump.

Same here. Have been wondering if he might make an appearance since Irvin went down - in addition to Brooks

A team gives up on a 5th rounder after only one year, and Hawks fans can't wait to see the guy. Shows where we're at.

This may have more to do with the reality that the team needs an edge rusher and this kid has flashed some ability.

It was highly unlikely he was going to hit the field behind Clowney and was simply surplus to needs for Tenn. Think he's an interesting reclamation project, and the price was right.

I’d not be surprised if he comes back on the PS, think there is something needed in his training.

He has been drafted and released when he was a quality pass rusher, something is missing. However, maybe he can be coached up.
