Dumping Walker pays off in the end

Sometimes you just have to cut your losses and move on.
Which brings us to Javon Walker, not exactly a name that elicits smiles at Dove Valley. Smirks, maybe, but not smiles.
Walker represents one of the bigger personnel mistakes of the Mike Shanahan era. Not only did the Broncos pay him a decent chunk of change for one productive season, they gave up a second-round draft choice to get him.
Walker was shown the door after his second season in Denver, whereupon the Raiders inexplicably gave him a six-year, $55-million contract. So what happens? Walker barely made it through a half-season before an ankle injury ended his season.
His numbers for the 2008 season: 15 catches, 196 yards, one touchdown. Basically Brandon Marshall's stat line vs. the Chargers in Week 2.
