STACKED’s take

Emmitt Johnson is an explosive, high-upside stash behind Kenneth Walker.

Emmitt Johnson is an explosive, high-upside stash at 177 overall. Underdog. They prefers him over Kenneth Walker, citing Walker's injury history and behavioral issues in camp, and believes Johnson could emerge as the top running back in Kansas City.
