Summer is the best time to evaluate dynasty assets and their place in the dynasty market. In this series, we will bring you a riser, faller, and longshot from each NFL team. We’ll cover dynasty values, potential trades, and overall team outlooks. Let’s jump into the Kansas City Chiefs! Riser: Kenneth Walker , RB The Chiefs have struggled at running back essentially since Kareem Hunt ’s rookie season. Since then they’ve tried early picks in Clyde Edwards-Helaire , late picks in Isiah Pacheco , and even re-signing Hunt himself to kick the backfield into gear. None of it has worked. This season, they tried another tactic, signing the Super Bowl MVP in free agency to a big deal as their starter for the future. Depth Chart courtesy of 4for4.com . Walker is coming off the back of the performance of his life, finishing as MVP in the biggest game he’s played as he ran for 125 yards in the Seahawks’ Super Bowl win against the Patriots. However, by his fantasy performance, he was actually coming off a down year in 2025, finishing as the RB22, his lowest in the NFL when playing a full season. But with Walker, the upside is clear. He was productive in Seattle in a split backfield, but lost passing downs and goal-line work to Zach Charbonnet . Now, he has the chance to get a three-down workload in a high-powered offense, being signed to a three-year $43m contract to lead the Chiefs on the ground. SUBSCRIBE TO DLF PREMIUM!
