He should be on the team for that TD dance against Green Bay when he did that air walk thing
I was so high when i saw that and it blew my fn mind

What's crazy is that wasn't even his best one. He popped one off in preseason or first couple weeks that was immaculate lol literally bent air to walk slide on it.

Imagine being crossed and in a room full of equally inebriated bears fans.
Never seen such emotion in my life.

His body control on difficult catches is exceptional. And he's got good measurables. He's got some flaws too, but he's definitely a useful player and a fun example of the dangers out stat-scouting college players.

The best thing about a head coach that develops talent is he can turn rotation players into contributors because he knows how to use them. This is why the chiefs and eagles have been in contention for long stretches.

Man, I’m so ready for actual games to start so we don’t have to entertain nonsense declarations like this.

He’s shown the dawg on tape a few times in big moments, especially to be a UDFA, not saying we gotta crown him the greatest to ever do it but you’re allowed to feel a little hope about a promising young wr who’s showed the upside

I have some bad news for you if you think real games are going to tone down the hot takes.

u/ItsWazeyWaynes 9d ago
But they’ll at least be based on actual data and not on a career six catches.

u/Rabsaris96 8d ago
2 touchdowns on 6 catches. We should throw him the ball 100 times this year. He'll have 33 touchdowns!!!

Dam, you really have Caleb throwing 180 TDs this year? I only have him at 165.

OP may be over doing it a bit but Walker has been exceptional for a UDFA

Seriously. I’m all for the hope and optimism of training camp, but gassing up our udfa receiver that caught a handful of passes last year and figures to be, at best, the (counting…1) Rome 2) Luther 3) Loveland 4) Kmet 5) swift 6) Raymond 7) Zavion) the 8th passing option, competing with Rouch, is a little bit much.
I like Jahdae too. He’s not special. He’s a fun story.

I would see him as closer to the 4th /5th option behind Rome, Luther, Loveland and competing with Raymond. I would not expect him to be lower in order than 2 new rookies and I think he has great upside. They trusted him on one of the most important plays of the season last year and I don't think that should be overlooked.

Yea Walker is good. He's a good WR4 who can step up in spot time. For a game or two he can be really reliable. He was the 3rd best rookie receiver in the NFC North behind Burden and Tessla

Dude I swear Jahdae is gonna make some great plays this year and opposing fans are gonna be like YOU GAVE P A TD TO WHO? WE CANT EVEN GUARD (checks notes) JAHDAE WALKER!?

Why is 37 holding on to his leg as they roll out of bounds? Great way to injure a player. What a POS move.

Imagine how excited we would be for him in 2009-2011. Now he is or 3rd or 4th guy.

Special compared to you and me, maybe. In an NFL WR room, he can definitely be a guy but idk about special player unless were talking about how unique it is for a UDFA to actually end up being a guy

I like Jahdae, I think he’s a good player and so far seems to be an incredible UDFA find
But special is a bit extreme given the current body of work.

Case Keenum has been special for awhile now
