Seahawks' Top Draft Target: Jadarian Price

With the NFL today, March 19th, the Seattle Seahawks face a major gabber running back heading

into the 2026 NFL draft. Their top option, Kenneth Walker III, a second-round pick from

2022, signed with the Kansas City Chiefs in free agency after the team declined to match

market value. With Zack Scharbene's sideline by a torn ACL, the current leaders are George

Hollani and Emanuel Wilson, whom Seattle grabbed from the Green Bay Packers. That leaves running

back as a prime target for the Seahawks, who hold the 32nd overall pick after winning Super Bowl 60.

Several analysts are zeroing in on Notre Dame's Giderian price as the perfect fit for Seattle at

that spot. National voices like those from NBC Sports, USA Today, and NFL.com all pegged him in

recent mock drafts. Price shows strong production last season, with 113 carries, for 674 yards,

and 11 touchdowns, even while splitting time behind a superstar teammate. His physical style,

quit bursts, and solid pass protection, make him versatile, addressing gaps left by the departed

backs. While his receiving numbers are low at just 15 catches over three college years,

experts see untapped potential there for Seattle to build on. This CNN story comes to you,
