Despite the Packers spending a first-round pick on Arizona left tackle Jordan Morgan, Rasheed Walker has been as confident as ever this offseason. Matt LaFleur also praised him for how he’s approached the offseason, even if there may be some uncertainty about whether he’ll start at left tackle. LaFleur and Adam Stenavich expected consistency from Walker last season, and we started to see that toward the end. In his last six games, including the two playoff games, Walker has allowed just one sack and eight pressures, and he’s done it against pass rushers like Nick Bosa, Micah Parsons, Montez Sweat, Brian Burns and others. We often hear about a second-year jump, and while Walker is entering his third NFL season, this will be his second as a starter, I believe we’ll see a similar leap in his development. For what it’s worth, Walker has been a dominant presence among left tackles all offseason. — Paul Brett
