Walkerâs ability to get off the edge quickly is apparent on film. He is disruptive and makes key tackles on special teams. He could see the field on special teams right away at Georgia.
Walker frequently finds his way into the opposing backfield. He is a big-hitter with good speed. His tape is very impressive and shows why he was recruited by the top college football programs in the country.
