Tight End Rank: #84
Overall: #555
Walker got the most playing time of his career last season and made the most of his chances, catching a career-high 29 passes for 331 yards. Walker has 20-plus receptions three of the last four seasons. He has topped 200 yards just twice in his career, though (each of the last two seasons). As long as Vernon Davis is around, Walker isn't likely to have a huge role in the offense. Walker is a well built tight end with decent speed. Once he gets the ball, he is tough to bring down at around 240 pounds. Walker will struggle at times with dropped passes.

The 49ers have an offense that utilizes the tight end, so Walker will get some chances. But it doesn't seem likely he'll do a whole lot better than last season. He has some value as a No. 3 tight end, but that is about it. |
