Lewis said Walker, who spent the past four seasons with the New York Giants, will compete for the Packers' nickel cornerback job next season. Green Bay's Al Harris and Charles Woodson are one of the NFL's best starting cornerback tandems, but the Packers struggled to find a consistent third cornerback last season. Lewis said Walker might have been the Giants' best coverage cornerback last season, but Giants coach Tom Coughlin believed Walker was too aggressive. "He's tough," Lewis said. "Sometimes, a little too tough." In November, Walker delivered a big hit on Tennessee Titans cornerback Vince Young on a fourth-down play but was called for a personal foul to extend the drive. The Titans went on to score a touchdown on the drive and won the game; Coughlin called the play "stupid."</div>http://www.nfl.com/teams/story/GB/10058600

We lack a nickleback and dimeback with experience. So far though its Will Blackmon looking like he will hold down the nickle role with Walker and Patrick Dendy fighting for the dimeback job. I wouldn't even be suprised if Walker doesn't make the team.
