Kenneth Walker and the Legacy of Boom-or-Bust Backs

NFL Week 8 - The Las Vegas odds say that Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker is the favorite for Offensive Rookie of the Year. Our numbers aren't so impressed—in fact, they ranked Walker as the least valuable runner in the NFL in Week 8.

As you have probably heard, a lot of things are going well in Seattle right now. That includes big years for a number of offensive stars: Geno Smith is sixth in passing DYAR, Will Dissly leads all tight ends in receiving DVOA, and Tyler Lockett is among the top 20 wide receivers in the league.
