Seahawks' RB Plan: Trust the Process

About this episode

The Seattle Seahawks face a challenging running back situation for the upcoming season, following Kenneth Walkers departure to the Kansas City Chiefs. Zach Charbonnet, the likely lead back, is still recovering from a torn ACL. General manager John Schneider, with two Super Bowl rings, assures fans of a solid plan, focusing on internal options and the draft. The teams history of investing in the position, such as drafting Walker and Charbonnet, shows promise. However, the 2026 draft lacks top-tier running backs, with Jeremiyah Love and Jadarian Price potentially going early. The Seahawks also have needs at edge rusher and cornerback. If Charbonnet isnt ready, players like Emanuel Wilson and George Holani may see increased action, impacting the teams NFC West chances.

On March 21st, the Seattle Seahawks are staring down a thin running-back group heading into next season. Kenneth Walker signed with the Kansas City Chiefs in Free Agency, leaving Zack Sharbanay as the likely leadback, but he's still rehabbing a torn. ACL General manager John Schneider recently addressed the concern, assuring fans the team has a solid plan in place. Earlier this week on his radio show, Schneider urged everyone to trust the process. He's got two Super Bowl rings from his time with Seattle, so his track record speaks for itself. Rather than chasing big-name free agents, the focus seems to be on internal options and the draft. Fans might remember how the Seahawks invested heavily in the position before, taking both Walker and Sharbanay in the second round over the last few years. That strategy paid off, as Walker landed a deal worth more than $10 million a year, and helped the Chiefs win a title. Looking ahead to the 2026 draft, Seattle picks at number 32, but the class lacks elite

running-back talent. Noter-Dame's Jeremiah Love could go in the top 10, while Jadarian Price might slip to late in the first round. The team has bigger needs at Edge R Usher and corner-back too. For now, players like Emanuel Wilson and George Halani could see heavy action if Sharbanay isn't ready by week one. Their performance will play a big role in whether the Seahawks challenge for the NSC West again this year.
