NFL Teams Battle for Packers' Walker

0:00On March 5th, four NFL teams are lining up to make a huge splash for Green Bay Packers left tackle Rashid Walker as he heads into free agency. The New England Patriots, Kansas City Chiefs, New York Giants and Cleveland Browns are all reportedly ready to pay top dollar. SpotTrack projects a 4-year, $81 million contract for the above average starter, and the Packers look likely to let him test the market. Walker put up solid numbers in past protection last season, earning a 70 pro football focus grade while allowing just 5 sacks in 34 pressures. His run blocking lag behind at a 55.4 grade, but that hasn't cooled the interest from these suitors. Teams like the Browns face the biggest hole up front, with both starting tackles and a key back of hitting free agency, even after trading for right. Tackle tight is howard. The Giants could use depth 2 if they lose their right tackle. Meanwhile, the Patriots and Chiefs seem set with their current lines, making their

1:00pursuit a bit surprising. Analysts point to Cleveland as the top destination, followed by New York, with a big drop-off to the other two. Abitting work could push the price even higher for Walker's services. Free agency moves fast, so Walker's next home could shake up these offensive lines before training camps start.
