Seahawks #1 Pick Jadarian Price

Jadarian Price the last pick of the 2026
by the Seahawks likely will be the starter 
with George Holani his backup with
Zach Charbonnett out for the beginning 
of the season. 

I am sure Seahawks fans some wonder
why the didn't resign Ken Walker III who 
was the MVP of the Super Bowl. There 
are probably several reasons they didn't.

The number one reason likely they didn't 
want to pay him what the Kansas City
Chiefs ended up pay. Walker did a very
good job in the playoffs as well as the 
Super Bowl as Zach Charbonnett didn't.
The amount was too much in their minds
for someone who was going to share 
time.

Walker was known as injury prone though
he didn't miss many games. He played 
every game this last season however in
2024 he played in 11 games.. They may
made that decision then. A fact that 
a running back career isn't long either.
His contract with the Chiefs is three 
year for $45 million. The first two years
is guaranteed. So having a seven year 
career isn't bad
.
Jadarian Price was the backup running
back says a lot about him being in
the first round pick.  This could him
play longer in the NFL.

Looking at some of his highlights at
Notre Dame he looks faster than 
Kenneth Walker. He is able to go down
the middle and get to the outside.
We could see him doing both for the
Seahawks.

Price didn't catch a lot of passes at
Notre Dame however he has some 
in camp that he can catch the ball.

It will be interesting to see in the
Seahawks offense how often they
go with a fullback. Last year I saw
more success in preseason. Robbie
Ouzts who was the primary fullback 
for the Seahawks played in only three
games last year before being hurt.
In those three games he played 30
to 40.percent.  

Brady Russell listed as fullback also
did time at tight end and played 
mostly when the Seahawks were 
inside the ten yard line for a stance.
His specialty is more on special 
teams. So we hope to see Robbie
healthy for the season and bring
another aspect to the running game.

The Seahawks don't have another
fullback on the roster at this time.
Go Hawks!
