Veteran corner to sign one-year deal

Former Baltimore Ravens cornerback Frank Walker is taking a physical today with the Minnesota Vikings and is expected to sign a one-year contract, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.

The Vikings have had injury issues at cornerback with rookie Chris Cook suffering a knee injury recently.

Walker tried out for the New Orleans Saints Tuesday, but wasn't signed to a contract.

The Tennessee Titans tried out Walker earlier this season.

Walker was with the Ravens for the past couple seasons, but wasn't retained as a free agent this offseason.

Walker, who has had previous stints with the Green Bay Packers and the New York Giants, tried out for the Miami Dolphins during the preseason and the Houston Texans this spring.

Yes Alan, they are. The Vikes only have 3 healthy CBs. THREE! I don't recall anything about this guy, so it's REALLY obvious that the Vikes are hurting.

Here's to hoping that rookie Cook can get back and stay healthy..

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

The only reason this signing is notable at all is that Frank Walker represents yet another Packers retread. The Vikings love them some Packers.

Rourke, meh. He's also a Ravens and Giants rethread. He's played more in Baltimore and NY than he had in GB. I think he had 3 years in NY and 2 in Baltimore. Only one year in GB. Can't really call him a Packers retread. 🙂

Don't you know? Frank Walker was the reason we went 14-4 in 2007. He was the big FA pickup in '07.

Now I hear you got Mike Montgomery too. Dude.

Rourke: I don't know your roster off the top of my head, and I'm too lazy to look it up. Maybe later.

Zero2Cool (13h) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

beast (27-Apr) : Reportedly Packers have UDFAs Jennings and Jones

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now

Martha Careful (27-Apr) : Z, could you please combine my thread with yours please. I obviously did not see it when I Created it
