About Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen is a defensive tackle for the Arizona Cardinals who's got serious confidence in his abilities on the field. The guy calls himself a "unicorn" because he can handle whatever situation you throw at him along the defensive line, which tells you everything about his mindset. Collectors are drawn to his potential and that kind of swagger usually translates well in the NFL. Since he doesn't have rookie cards yet, any early releases featuring Nolen could be solid pickups down the road. Look for numbered parallels and autographed versions if you're betting on his upside with the Cardinals.
Nolen knows how special of a talent he is up front and doesn't need much other than a few instructions to make something happen. "I'd just say I'm a unicorn to sum it up," he said. "I can do whatever for you in any given situation, as long as I get the right coaching. I can take it from there."

Dad’s Take on Walter Nolen
*adjusts reading glasses and squints at card* Oh great, another "unicorn" – kid's out here doing light jogging drills in practice gear looking like he's afraid to break a sweat! You call yourself a unicorn but you're posing like you're in a yoga class, not preparing to demolish offensive linemen. Back in my day, defensive tackles didn't need fancy nicknames – they just needed to look like they could eat a quarterback for lunch, not like they're about to ask the coach for a participation trophy!
