Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker was the star of Monday's practice in full pads and is impressing the new coaching staff.
Albert Breer: "Kenneth Walker III was the star of Monday’s practice, the first one in full pads, and it reflected the sort of spring and summer he’s had. To the new staff, he looks like the kind of back you can play on all three downs, and build a running game around. And Zach Charbonnet gives the team some depth behind him."
Walker has been a star throughout the summer including OTAs and now into training camp.
Breer noting Walker's impressions on the new coaching staff is key as they had no hand in drafting Walker nor RB Zach Charbonnet.
The assumption has been that Walker and Charbonnet would split carries, but if Walker does become a three down back while Charbonnet is merely the back-up, it could be huge for Walker's fantasy scoring week-to-week.
Keep an eye on how camp continues to play out and if Walker continues to draw praise from beat reporters.
Charbonnet still holds some upside, but he really needed to outperform Walker in camp to potentially pass Walker on the depth chart.
Charbonnet is still going late enough in drafts that he isn't a bad pick, but it is worth monitoring.
