Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid confirmed to PhiladelphiaEagles.com on Saturday morning that the Eagles have an interest in Green Bay Packers wide receiver Javon Walker, who's requested a trade.

"We're communicating," Reid said. "It's a matter of a couple scenarios and we just have to work through it and see how it works today."

Walker, a Pro Bowler in 2004, missed 15 games last season with a knee injury. In that 2004 season, though, he had 89 catches for 1,382 yards and 12 touchdowns. He's since refused to play for the Packers, and reports have linked Walker and the Eagles throughout the off-season.

Reid did not discuss specifics about the parameters of a deal or whether Walker's come to Philadelphia for a physical.

"There's a chance of (Walker coming to Philadelphia)," Reid said. "He'll come in for a physical if it gets down to that point."

Between now and then, the Eagles sit comfortably with six picks in the first four rounds. It allows the Eagles flexibility to either draft prospects or acquire a veteran like Walker.

"It's always a crazy day on draft day," Reid said. "That's another little wrinkle we're looking at."
