Per KFFL;he Dallas Cowboys are in the process of signing free-agent CB Frank Walker (Titans) to their active roster. CB Jenkins has multiple injuries. I don't believe Walker will help much.

I'd take Underwood before I'd take F Walker.

Cowboys to sign veteran CB Frank Walker. Remember signing him in GB -- tough, in-your-face, a bit crazy. In other words, a cornerback.

FWalk spent a couple of years on a defense in Baltimore that ain't bad.
He's a journeyman. Not the worst guy to be available if you get "decimated" at a position.

He is a journeyman for a reason. He isn't any good
Have to have something to become a journeyman. Let's go! I'm ready to battle about Frank Walker!
typical move by a team that doesn't develop from within.
you have to get the journeyman cuz you don't have the time to coach up a younger guy. otherwise known as failure.

Actually, I noticed quite a few ex-Packers playing for different teams over the weekend.
Giacominni in Seattle.
Giordano in Oakland.
Paris Lenon in wherever it was.
And, of course, now that I've siad quite a few, I can't think of any more...

Benny Sapp would be a better option....as long as he doesn't have to check Wes Welker
Steelers just picked up Jamon Meredith for backup purposes.
I did not know this...

With Week One in the books, NFL vested veterans now only guaranteed 25% -- instead of 100% -- of salary; look for some signings.

That's new...and it makes sense if they want to make sure the older vets get a job, musta been part of the new CBA deal
Are you saying the 25% is new? I remember the rule about not getting 100% when you aren't on the roster week 1 from past years.
Yes, I think the 25 % is new
I thought the old rule was that if the vet is on the roster week 1, his salary for the year was 100 % guaranteed- and that's why many teams waited until after week 1 to sign a vet

Now I'm really confused...I read Brandt's tweet as saying the now that week one is done vested veterans can be signed for less than 100% and that they would have gotten 100% if on a roster for week 1.

Walker either is or will be 30 this year. I'd look for a younger guy who might have more of an upside.
