If he sets a career high in touches per game (currently at 18) this season as expected, then Walker has a mid-range RB1 season well within his range, especially in half-PPR.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Walker's career-high touches (18 current) could yield mid-range RB1 season at age 25.

If Walker sets a career high in touches per game (currently at 18) this season as expected, then he has a mid-range RB1 season well within his range, especially in half-PPR. Walker's boom-bust style will smooth out with better interior blocking and an elite QB next to him, especially entering the actual prime of his career as a 25-year-old. The Chiefs are 11th in projected points according to the betting markets, but Mahomes looks well ahead of schedule.
