CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- As a former college football coach, Curtis Walker understands the importance of NFL teams keeping their intentions private as the draft approaches.
As the dad of a college football player most NFL mock drafts have going to the Carolina Panthers at No. 8, Walker has a curiosity like anybody who follows the selection process.
"You can tell me if they're going to take him,'' said Walker, the father of Georgia edge rusher Jalon Walker, in a somewhat hopeful tone.
