According to Morning News staffer Albert Breer, that clears the way for the Cowboys to move in on Walker, who could provide a strong vertical complement to Terrell Owens. Walker was due $5.4 million in bonuses in 2008, with the first installment to be paid Tuesday. No one was going to pay that and, by all appearances, the lack of a suitable trade partner prompted the team to make the move now. As Breer further noted, when healthy, Walker's been a force, posting 1,000-yard seasons in 2004 and '06. But in 2005 (his last year with the Packers) and '07, he couldn't stay healthy and there've been rumblings that he may need microfracture surgery on his knee down the line. The 6-3, 215-pounder also turns 30 in October. Still, the Bucs, Eagles and Redskins might share the Cowboys' interest.
