PFF - Walker isn't a one-year wonder. He's the real deal and has an all-around NFL skill set.

FB Guys - Walker has the strength to break tackles, quickness to make tacklers miss, and valid, sound vision to project as an instant NFL starter on early downs. He also possesses the long speed to make game-changing plays once he gets to the third level. Walker does enough in the passing game to stay on the field on third down and can get better as a blocker or receiver, and he’s the safest running back pick in this class.

DLF - Post-Draft Summary: If Walker can produce in the passing game, he's going to a great spot with Seattle's run-centric offense. Rashaad Penny has never stayed healthy and is on a short-term contract. Chris Carson is also coming off a serious injury. It's highly possible Walker has limited touches as a rookie, but rises to the depth chart a year from now. Dynasty owners may need to be patient, but Walker is in a good spot with the Seahawks. He's a sure bet to be taken in the top five of most rookie drafts as a result.
