I'm pretty high on Walker after getting paid and landing in KC — so is analyst Hayden Winks, who has more on Walker in his bold predictions for RBs in 2026.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Walker's Chiefs signing makes him a high-upside RB with dual-game exposure.

The source is high on Walker after he got paid and landed with the Chiefs, viewing him as a key piece in Kansas City's run game. The source drafted both Mahomes and Walker together, noting that while this creates negative correlation (if Walker scores, Mahomes typically doesn't), it also means having a piece in both the Chiefs' passing and run games; if Kansas City bounces back as a top-scoring offense in 2026, having both players gives a very big portion of that pie.
