The Green Bay Packers have had their share of offensive line problems this season. Elgton Jenkins just hit injured reserve. The injuries have been there all year and refuse to go away. Aaron Banks has disappointed \u2013 all $77 million of him.<\/p>\n

In that context, availability and starting experience are especially valuable commodities. That\u2019s what left tackle Rasheed Walker has given them. He has been superbly average. And heading into free agency this offseason, that might be more than enough to win him a frighteningly large paycheck.<\/p>\n

Like MLB shortstops or NBA centers, Walker can make bank just by being capable at key position<\/h2>\n

According to an anonymous NFC executive, Walker could be looking at a contract that exceeds the four-year, $82 million deal that Tennessee\u2019s Dan Moore, a comparably mid-tier tackle, netted last cycle.<\/p>\n

As ESPN\u2019s Jeremy Fowler notes, \u201cbig money awaits even average tackles.\u201d Per Fowler, that executive expects to see Walker be \u201c\u2018paid<\/em> paid.’\u201d<\/p>\n

In his fourth NFL season, 43 starts into his career, Walker is the epitome of doing enough<\/em> \u2013 perhaps a little more, at times a little less. Pro Football Focus gives him an overall grade of 68.1, good for 34th out of 76 at his position. He ranks 35th in pass protection, 46th defending the run.<\/p>\n

Walker\u2019s plus pass grade comes through in a 94.3% success rate, observes Bowen. That ranks seventh, a lot better than just average. He also \u201chas the footwork and mobility to match speed on the edges.\u201d<\/p>\n

That said, Walker is not without fundamental flaws. \u201cHis technique could still improve, and he lacks a strong anchor,\u201d Bowen also writes. It all adds up to a solid, perhaps slightly above-average player at an important position.<\/p>\n

Whether the Packers believe he is worth over $20 million per year remains to be seen. In 2025, Walker is making $3.4 million in the final year of his rookie deal.<\/p>\n
