Coming off a real climb — WR170 to WR118 tells the story better than age; 2025 also ended early (8 games).

DVS is our model view, scored on Engine-default half-PPR — not a guaranteed price in your league. Bye weeks and schedule strength are left out on purpose.

Quick answer

Buy

Walker caught 6 passes for 136 yards in 2025, finishing WR118. He scored 36% more than his touches said he should. Finish path matters here: WR170 → WR118 is a breakout, not a development pitch. Played a short 2025 (8 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
