:
“Big-bodied athlete, quality mover for his size and age, good red zone target, good pass catcher for the position, mismatch against defensive backs and smaller linebackers.”
Walters is actually a familar name to me, and he is ranked highly by our TN scouts. He is a D1 caliber TE, which Tennessee has several of in the upcoming classes.

reinforced his upside as a pass catcher and not just a blocking option at the Battle in the Bluegrass State. The 2028 tight end consistently showed natural hands, catching the ball cleanly away from his frame, and did an excellent job high-pointing throws. At 6’4 240 with length and strong hands, he understands how to use his size to his advantage, elevating over defenders and finishing plays at the catch point. His ability to win above defenders adds another layer to his game and makes him a legitimate mismatch target, especially in the red zone, and he moved well for his size and age.

can play well at all positions due to his size and physicality, but projects best as a tight end. He has that nice mix of receiving upside with blocking skills to be one of the more balanced tight ends in the state.
Walters is a solid receiver with nice footwork, strong hands, the ability to turn upfield to pick up more yardage and an underrated amount of twitch. However, his best skills are in the trenches. The 2028 TE is an excellent blocker, especially when leading the way with aggression, nice hand placement and solid pad level.
