It look like he may have value as a situational pass rusher (remember KGB?). We're really starting to get some depth at OLB (Zombo, Brad Jones, Walden). Not sure if any of these guys are starting material right now, but you'd have to think one of them could develop into an above average OLB, especially with Greene's coaching and Matthews and Raji drawing double teams on most plays.

Another note.. Clay's body lean angles in pass rush looked better yesterday.. supporting reports that he is starting to get healthy again.

Nothing but good news.

I thought the same thing on one of his pressures where he just blew by the guy, but was on a damn near 45 degree angle. I thought "Clay is BACK!".

Some national pub for the young man.. nice.

Defensive Players of the Week
Erik Walden, LB, Green Bay

Starting at right outside linebacker because of a knee injury to incumbent Frank Zombo, Walden, an itinerant 2008 sixth-round pick of the Cowboys, led the Packers with 11 tackles and two sacks in their playoff-clinching 10-3 win over the Bears. Green Bay has had outstanding front-seven depth this year, and Walden was the cherry on top of that Sunday.

He deserves a game ball. He executed his delayed blitz on one of his sacks to perfection. He flew right by Roberto Garza, who never saw him coming.

Walden had a great game, and he looks like he has the tools to be moulded into a good player.

It will be interesting how he handles the Eagles, assuming he gets the starting gig.

They pose a very different threat and this game will tell us a whole lot more about the man. On initial analysis though, fantastic performance given the type of game - let's face it, the Bears played us intense with every intention of keeping us at home. For a newbie to come in and do that? clutch.

Zero2Cool is my captain.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

Since he was signed, all I thought was "he's wearing #93, he has to be good" 😃 Outstanding performance which I'd like him to give the Packer Nation again next week. Hadn't that much luck with #93 Kenny Pettway, though.

Signed him 10/27th as a street free agent. Spent time with MIA & KC on the roster.

Walden , a 6-foot-2, 250-pound third-year player out of Middle Tennessee State, has played in 28 career games. Drafted in the sixth round (167th overall) by the Dallas Cowboys in 2008, he was claimed by Kansas City after being released by Dallas in the final roster cutdown in August 2008. Walden played in nine games for the Chiefs in 08 before being released in November, and was then claimed by Miami, where he appeared in six games that season. He also played in 11 games for the Dolphins in 2009 and two contests for Miami this season. Walden will wear No. 93.

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.
