Javon Walker

Denver acquired Javon Walker from Green Bay Packers in exchange for 2006 2nd round pick (37th overall subsequently traded, Jimmy Williams). Denver paid draft capital for Javon Walker, making this a targeted personnel acquisition instead of a pure pick shuffle. The Broncos grade of C reflects the balance between immediate roster help and the opportunity cost of the pick sent to Green Bay Packers.

Seattle traded down from #20 to #28 in the 2002 draft, landing TE Jerramy Stevens and a second-round pick while Green Bay took WR Javon Walker. The extra second-rounder gave Seattle real flexibility, but the player outcomes complicate the trade. Stevens became a recognizable but inconsistent part of the early-2000s Seahawks, while Walker had the higher peak before injuries changed his career. This sits as a B-level draft move: rational process, usable return, but no clean Seahawks win in hindsight.
