2022 NFL draft: Twitter reactions to Seahawks picking RB Kenneth Walker III
The Seattle Seahawks capped off a rare opportunity with back-to-back picks in the second round. Following their selection of defensive end Boye Mafe from Minnesota, the Seahawks took running back Kenneth Walker at No. 41 overall.
After addressing two major positions of need with their first two selections in the draft, Seattle returned to typical draft form and went with a player in a position not many consider a great need.
Charles Cross and Boye Mafe were consensus solid picks, but Kenneth Walker III is a little more divisive. People seem to be split. There are those who like the pick…

I have not said this in several years. I freaking LOVE the picks from @Seahawks Think Kenneth Walker is such a good player. #YardsAfterContact

YES!!!
Kenneth Walker is my Russell Wilson & Tyler Lockett over the last decade. Just simply one of my favorite players in all of college football.
Look MSU Coach Mel Tucker in the eyes, as I did a few times, & ask him about Walker & you’ll know why SEA made this pick

Lmao the #Seahawks took a RB in the 2nd round.
Kenneth Walker was my favorite running back of the 2022 NFL Draft actually. Really good elusiveness. Solid power at times. Second gear explosiveness to burn defenses down the field. I love watching him play.

Kenneth Walker III is the pick for Seattle at No. 41. The Seahawks get one of this draft's best RBs early in the second round and fill what is a bigger need than you might think. Chris Carson is coming off neck surgery and Rashaad Penny has a long injury history. https://t.co/e6TtevZch9

Kenneth Walker is my my favorite rb in the draft. He will run you over. Run by you. Or break your ankles. To me he is the man!! @Seahawks got a steal in my opinion. And then to get Mafe who is big strong and explosive. Way to “F”in go Seattle

However, there are still more than a few fans who are concerned the Seahawks made yet another head scratching pick…
Mafe was a good pick, but Kenneth Walker? This team man…

The Seahawks are so predictable. I get why they drafted a RB, I just deeply disagree with the decision. https://t.co/wSpCqwPDUi
