Walker:


NFL Network's Adam Schefter reports Javon Walker will be shopped by the Broncos this offseason.
If the Broncos can get a first-day pick for Walker, it appears they'll pull the trigger, although that may be unlikely because of Walker's knee. He's more likely to get release in our mind than traded.



Chad:

Adam Schefter reports that a "showdown is looming" between Chad Johnson and the Bengals.
If T.J. Houshmandzadeh gets a contract extension as expected, Ocho Cinco is going to make a stink about his below-market deal. There are indications he already has, and may ask to be dealt this offseason. The Bengals don't seem willing to move Johnson, but a possible holdout or trade request looks like a possibility.



Now IMO ,I would say Chad Johnson but his attitude,lately has caused me to be much less interested in him.But Javon Walker........I mean 6'3 and has been to the pro-bowl but main problem is hes really an injury prone.


Should we show interest? .I mean if Walker comes to us he'll come in with alot of play making ability's epically of his height.I would trade a good 3rd round pick ...nothing else.And if we do acquire Walker I would still draft a WR in the second round,as a back up plain and to develop him as a future WR.


So how about it guys Walker in a skins uniform?.Also Albert Hanyestworth is reported to be a FA but I wouldnt want him now but you can talk about him to.

Walker gets injured rolling out of bed in the morning, and Ocho Stinko isn't even the best WR on his own team anymore.

With that being said, Walker is worth signing to an incentive-laden deal if Denver releases him.
I think the Bengals will demand too much for Johnson for him to be traded; he'll either get a new deal from them or pull a T.O. and sit out the year.

Also, congratulations to por-tiz2skins for using correct grammar and not making any spelling errors in the entire thread title!

Been practicing...know what Im saying?.Any way! if Walker does infact become a free agent than we should get him "IF!" the price is right.
BTW found a good highlight of Walker.

I mean hes about 28-29 and hopefully he gets release and we pick him up.

Walker is known for having an attitude problem, (see Brandon Lloyd) so if Gibbs is still the coach it is unlikely Walker will come to Washington

I wouldnt mind getting Chad.

But, I much rather have an all around big physical receiver. One who can block and give it his all.

Art Monk comes to mind.

It's going to be hard to pick who stays or goes with these guys. I say keep Moss,ARE,RC. I think Thrash will be here because of special teams, but the way Mix is playing maybe he won't. I think we will only grab one receiver and maybe try to hide on on the practice squad.

I want no part of Javon Walker.

What has he done is Denver since he arrived there? Nothing thats what. Why? He has been injured most of the time. No way!

Ocho Cinco? Hmmmm..... I like Ocho Cinco but Cincinatti willl likely ask for a whole lot of compensation. So I say no.

I think we are good with what we have. Caldwell is nice 3rd or 4th option, Moss is definite starter next year IMO. Give Mix a chance. He's earned his spot on ST at least, might as well give the guy some rope, he can either hang himself or rescue himself. FA could go to DE, OL, back-up QB and replacing Prileou (sp).

I agree with giving Mix a chance. He will pretty much know the offense by at least training camp if not mini camp. He already has a good relationship with JC. Those two may become a formidable duo.

Javon Walker.... depends on the physical condition of his knee... he has had multiple bouts with it.. He is a definate play maker, but age and gimpy knee makes him less appealing. It's age/knee versus price and compesation to Denver...
Ocho Cinco, I like him, he is a little inconsistent, but they said that about Randy Moss. A change of scenery & contract might do it. He would be a great compliment to Santana Moss ... I say go for Chad Johnson if within reason ....

the Cincinnati Enquirer reports that the Bengals are unlikely to deal Ocho Cinco, because they'd take an $8.8 million salary-cap hit if he's dealt or released -- that's $2.5 million more than if he stays on the roster.
