From the episode

Kenneth Walker III from Seattle, the Super Bowl MVP...I think Kenneth Walker is like a borderline first round pick in fantasy. And I do think that it's gonna be a huge, huge workload and I'm expecting the career highs across the board for him.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Kenneth Walker is a borderline first-round pick with career-high workload expected.

Borderline first-round fantasy pick with expected career highs across the board; Chiefs' interior offensive line is strong (Creed Humphrey, Joe Thuney, Josh Simmons ranked 11th in pressure rate allowed), and Kenneth Walker was fifth in yards per carry when not hit behind the line since 2022, compared to Chiefs running backs ranking 46th and 51st in that same metric; Andy Reid has a historic track record with elite running backs (LeSean McCoy averaged 1,800+ scrimmage yards in his final three seasons with Reid), and the Seahawks' offensive line was weaker than the Chiefs' on paper, suggesting Walker's efficiency could improve significantly.
