Tom Silverstein, of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, reports Green Bay Packers WR Javon Walker said in an interview Friday, May 13 he has not seen any progress with his attempt to get a new contract from the team. He said the Packers had not responded to proposals that he and his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, have submitted for a renegotiated contract. About three months have gone by since Rosenhaus informed the Packers that Walker wanted a new deal, but almost no progress has been made. Walker was asked if he thought the Packers were not budging because his contract had two years left and he replied, "Yes, I'm guessing so." Walker was evasive when asked several times about whether he would attend a voluntary minicamp next month or report for training camp in July. Walker feels like he has established himself as an elite wide receiver and now he wants to be paid like it.
