We are almost ready to move out of speculation mode and into some real signings, but here is another rumor courtesy of Derrick Gunn of Comcast Sportsnet. The Broncos are likely to release oft-injured Javon Walker, and the Eagles are looking into signing the veteran wide receiver. Other teams who might be interested in Walker are two division rivals, the Cowboys and Redskins.

  • god i hope we dont sign this guy

  • u never know. He could heal, hes still a young guy. I like his playmaking ability, and he wont cost as much as some others. I like this move and i think if hes healthy hes a great addition to Curtis, Brown, and Avant. Avant will emerge in the next two years as a top 20-25 receiver in this league.

  • He does have injury issues. It would be nice to have him because he is pretty good when hes healthy. But I dont see the Eagles signing him. But you never know we did get Asante Samuel and Chris Clemens.

  • if eagles sign walker or trade for fitzgerald then they win their first superbowl for sure!!!!!!!

  • Javon is a young receiver he should be able to recover fine. With every wide receiver option gone except him it seems like a no brainer.

Via MVN  |  June 17, 2008
In continuing with our ongoing coverage of the Javon Walker robbery and assault, its time to take a look at the various information that is out there.

Detailing Oakland Raiders' receiver Javon Walker's injuries

Via MVN  |  June 17, 2008
The reports on the extent of Javon Walker's injuries have been sketchy at best. He was found unconscious according to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. Jason Jones reports that he has an orbital fracture. Since he was unconscious, it is likely there is a concussion involved, especially coupled with an orbital fracture, which is a broken eye socket. Neither of these bode...

EAGLES, 'SKINS OUT OF WALKER SWEEPSTAKES

EAGLES, 'SKINS OUT OF WALKER SWEEPSTAKES A league source tells us that the Philadelphia Eagles and the Washington Redskins are no longer among the teams interested in acquiring the services of receiver Javon Walker. There's a suspicion that Walker's agent is puffing in this regard, overstating to the media the interest in the player in an effort to create a market...

Raiders Sign Javon Walker to Monster Contract

Via All Things Philly Sports  |  March 04, 2008
Cross another receiver off the Eagles list, not that they were interested anyway. Javon Walker signed with the Oakland Raiders for 6 years, 55 million. That's a ton of money for a guy who is always injured. I'm glad the Eagles didn't pay that much for a mediocre receiver. So that definitely rules out any free agent receivers coming to the Eagles, although D.J. Hackett...

Randy Moss to Eagles Still A Possibility

Chris Mortensen of ESPN is reporting some extremely interesting news regarding Randy Moss. "The Eagles are the one team I would keep an eye on if Moss doesn't go back to the Patriots," Mort reported on Saturday night. (video) And in other scary news, Mort adds that the Cowboys would be the third team he'd list with the best chance of landing Moss. Boy, could...

Raiders WR Found Unconscious in Vegas

Via The Hungry Actor  |  June 17, 2008
Raiders WR Javon Walker was found unconscious in the streets of Las Vegas Monday morning. Reported injuries are a fractured orbital bone. Most of us questioned the signing of Walker by the Raiders this offseason to the kind of contract he got. But of course I don't think anyone saw him as the type to get himself into this kind of situation. He hasn't been a player with...

Al Davis Airs Out the Raiders' Dirty Laundry

Via BroncoTalk  |  October 01, 2008
"I sent (Lane Kiffin) a letter. If you'll bear with me, it's about three pages." Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis went off on ex-coach Lane Kiffin late Tuesday, releasing this letter he allegedly sent Kiffin in the week following the Raiders' 41-14 pounding by the Broncos. In the letter, Davis accuses Kiffin of lying to the media...

Oakland Raiders may be set at receiver

Via MVN  |  May 02, 2008
The Raiders drafted two wide receivers last weekend and judging by their play on the field in college, the young receivers currently on the roster had better step up their game. It's highly unlikely veterans Javon Walker, Ronald Curry, or Drew Carter have anything to worry about other than playing time, but if you aren't one of those guys and you're hoping to play receiver...

Holes remain for the Oakland Raiders to fill

Via MVN  |  May 03, 2008
The flashy part of free agency saw the Oakland Raiders go buck wild in spending, adding a fresh infusion of talent to the Raider team. Javon Walker and Drew Carter filled a glaring need at wide receiver, and Gibril Wilson upgraded the safety position. Al Davis added the luxury item of DeAngelo Hall to pair with Nnamdi Asomugha. Along came the draft and the Raiders added a potential...
