Why does Walters get a pass? Many claim he is a great coach, but say Chase and Tee were no brainers when it comes to Tobin picks.

Now if Chase and Tee were no brainer picks, then where is the development of all these wide receivers we've drafted?

Why does he get a pass around here?

Does Walters get credit for Higgins and Chase?

Higgins was drafted in 2020, when Walters was just an assistant WR coach.
Chase was a stud coming out of college and hit the ground running from the jump.
Tyler Boyd was pre-Walters as WR coach as well.

Iosivas does deserve credit putting up nearly 500 yards and 6 TDs as the 4th option in just his 2nd year in the league and coming in raw.
Other than that, Jones has been useless as a WR and Burton has had probably the worst season publicity-wise for Bengals WRs in the past decade+, and that includes the whole John Ross fiasco from Taylor's first year or two.

Coach will always look good if they got good players.
Until the players start underperforming as a whole unit does the coach get the spotlight on them.
