GCn20 Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 Riders sign Derel Walker. How clueless can one GM be? You have a culture of me-first players you are trying to get rid of, and you sign one of the biggest me-first guys in the league. Makes no sense.

Has to be cheap. No one else was picking up the phone to get him. 1 hour ago, Bigblue204 said: It makes sense when you realize they were desperate for a vet WR. Desperate cannot fully sum up the logic on a signing like this. Beyond desperate. The guy walked any route he wasn't the 1st or 2nd read in the play call. Wait until he gets in a dressing room with the rest of the me-first guys. Any kind of culture reset they were hoping for is gone up in smoke. I understand that they desperately needed a receiver, as their receivers are by far the weakest in the league, but sometimes you just gotta roll the dice on a rookie if everyone worth a snot says no to your offers. Honestly, I would went with Darvin Adams or Jorden before Walker. Edited March 2, 2023 by GCn20 Wideleft and GCJenks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbbfan Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 If walker is cheap, by rider standards any way, it’s a good low risk high reward move. He’s not a guy you want to bank on but he’s a good add for camp. Either he sticks and returns some what to form or he pushes and helps train up some rookies and you cut him. That said the riders probably are banking on him and it feels a little reactionary to not getting either of the top 2 wrs available. If I was a fan of theirs I would be concerned that he and td jake are being counted on to start and perform at a high level. 3 minutes ago, Booch said: he's been in decline since 2019....and in that environment...and the likely losing and crap atmosphere with more than a good chance of more turmoil in multiple areas....can you really see him being a lead by example guy?....I cant...unless the example is similar to the clowns they have had their the last several yrs I think he would be a good add for a team like bc.
