The Denver Broncos primarily operate a one-gap 3-4 defense, emphasizing attacking and disruptive linemen.
Initially rotational 3-4 DE with the potential for long-term starting role as a disruptive interior pass rusher.
A passive, two-gap nose tackle role in a traditional 3-4 where his pass rush juice would be underutilized.
Walker's size and pass-rushing ability make him a good fit for a one-gap attacking 3-4 defense, allowing him to play multiple interior roles.
Selected #51 overall in Round 2 of the 2017 NFL Draft by Denver Broncos out of Florida State.
