GREEN BAY – With Year 3 quickly approaching, Quay Walker feels ready to be the man in the middle of the Packers' new-look defense.

Still only 24, Walker hasn't shirked the added responsibility of leading a highly competitive position room that's adjusting to a new scheme under incoming defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley.
