Green Bay Packers face criticism for letting tackle Rasheed Walker leave

The Green Bay Packers face scrutiny after Rasheed Walker signed a one-year, $4 million contract with the Carolina Panthers in free agency. Packers OnSI analyst Bill Huber graded the decision as a D, suggesting the team miscalculated the market for the left tackle. The organization reportedly expected to secure a significant compensatory draft pick, but the modest deal landed by Walker limited the potential return to a late-round selection. The team sought to transition to Jordan Morgan, a first-round draft pick, as the primary option at the position. Following the move, the Packers currently face a shortage of depth at tackle and have experimented with moving interior lineman Anthony Belton to the edge to compensate for the loss.
