The Worst Free Agency Transaction?

[philkiecker]

Of all the moves and trades with free agents this off season, which one do you think will be the least beneficial for a team? Personally, I think that the Oakland Raider's decision to pick up Javon Walker from the Broncos for $55 million over 6 years is ridiculous and not worthwhile.

[Fish Fiend]

I wonder who actually MADE the move. Al Davis? Is he still the BIG WATOOBI for the Raidahs? Calling the shots? Wonder who starts at QB there....

Is he fully recovered from his injury?

walker for 55 mil looks bad from here.

[philkiecker]

I may be a bitter Packer fan, but Walker seems to me to be just like Antonio Freeman. He thought he was a big deal with the Packers. Then production slowly decreased as the years went on without Brett Favre to make him look great. That's why it's so surprising that he got such a big deal.

yea walker was a product of the system.

they screw porter and sign walker?


davis must go.

[sanjay]

yes i too agree that picking up Javon Walker for $55 million is not at all a good decision.its not worth it.

i strongly oppose Oakland Raider's decision to pick up Javon Walker for whopping $55 million.He does not deserve it.porter is better option in my opinion.

[electricwall]

davis needs to step aside.

I agree, I'm still wondering about the first overall pick QB Russel, a few years ago, is this guy going to pan out, is Walker capable of making a QB look good, or is it the other way around? I guess we will find out in a few months!

I also question Dallas's Zach Thomas pick up, yea, I love Zach for many years as a Miami fan and I think his heart is still in the game, but when you see a guy start getting concussion problems, it's usually a sign he's on his way out.The way Zach plays, we will find out quick if the head problem will linger, because he puts 110% in on every snap.I don't remember the contract amount, but if he don't make it thru pre-season, then no amount in the world would be worth it.

Pizza....Russell was taken last year @#1 overall, missed TC yet still saw some action. His arm will make Walker look good. With the proviso Walker's knee holds up, that is the real question and why it was such a bad deal.

However, I am also of the opinion that Zach should have just retired he is done! Zach is another Trent Green waiting to happen and Dallas gave the bloke he replaced to us in the Fasano deal. Madness IMO.

All sounds logical to me. I don't know what Davis goes through more... free agents or head coaches.
