Now he does have some decent lists and I appreciate the prospects that he names.
But
He just throws stuff out there. I remember he talked about Josh Allen having a great Senior Bowl and looking better than anyone there; which was the exact opposite of what everyone else was saying.

I mean, he also just goes by stats for a lot of "games" he says he scouts. Throw in bias that you can clearly see in his writings.

He gave the Bengals a F grade for firing Marvin Lewis; saying he saw them making the playoffs if they had their players healthy.
Meanwhile, before the season, he predicted the Bengals would go 6-10.

He's great for starting off, but there's wayyyyyyyyy better places.

Walter usually has a good number of prospects listed with brief descriptions compared to many sites I've seen (especially since CBS has changed analysts and format to just top 100), so I agree it's a good place to start to get familiar with names. But he's usually off about the rounds they go. He also doesn't really scout much, he relays information from what his "sources" tell him.

As for the draft itself, Jonah Williams reminds me a lot of Mike McGlinchey. Most would think he's the no-brainer top OT with practically no weaknesses in his game, but people are overthinking just like they did with McGlinchey. Taylor MAY end up being better but there's a LOT more risk with him compared to Williams. I'd be all in favor of the Bengals trading up for Jonah Williams. He, Nick Bosa, and Quinnen Williams are the only three guys I'd for sure want more than Devin White.
