PFF podcast just did a rundown on the latest Kiper mock, with Walker at 1.6 they spent quite some time on this... he's a guy who graded out superbly at the combine, but has a mysterious lack of "production" during his college career. Their view is that while the connection between college production (the PFF grade, or simpler measurables) and pro production (same) is variable across positions, pass rushing is one of the stronger ones. That is... all things equal, if you have to choose between the combine freak or the all-american 13-sack guy, you're better off with the latter, by the numbers.

There are exceptions... Danielle Hunter the most obvious recent one. But it's an interesting case, for a guy who is by most accounts moving way up the board.
