Walker continuously graded out as average at best in this department and has never been in the elite status in any facet of grading. I realize that the grading system has some weaknesses, but the reality is, to be a $20 mill LT you need to be in the elite 3 or 4, not ranked somewhere around 13 or 14 which is pretty much in the middle.What we need to understand is that if either Belton or Morgan could break into the top 15 or 16 next year, there would be absolutely no sense in giving Walker that kind of money, because you'd have younger developing talent on a first contract who are contributing at just about the level Walker has, and would have growth left in their quality of play.Somewhere along the line you need to decide that money thrown at a position for little to no gain in quality is wasted money. You need that cap space to fill those spots that are really weakened because of the salary cap. Quite frankly, I don't think throwing that much money at Wallace is a wise decision.But, in the end, it will be Gutekunst who makes that decision and I think he'll decide wisely for the future of the team.But this is just my opinion.</blockquote>
