Is Jadarian Price Still Undervalued in Dynasty Formats?

After averaging six yards per carry across his three seasons at the University of Notre Dame, running back Jadarian Price was selected 32nd overall in the 2026 NFL Draft by the Seattle Seahawks. With Seahawks RB1 Zach Charbonnet (knee) recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered in mid-January, Price could be in a position to immediately assume the RB1 role in Seattle. It's worth noting that Price did not play a workhorse role in college thanks to the presence of former Notre Dame and current Arizona Cardinals running back Jeremiyah Love. The Seahawks also signed veteran back Emanuel Wilson, who profiles as a capable stop-gap option in the backfield. Still, Price is by far the highest upside running back in Seattle, and he projects to be the team's running back of the future with Charbonnet entering the final year of his current contract in 2026. Price's dynasty value has skyrocketed since the NFL Draft, but he still may be worth investing in ahead of his potential rookie-year emergence.

Jadarian Price Not Expected to Lead Seahawks' Backfield Right Away

The Seattle Seahawks made a major addition to their backfield on draft night, selecting University of Notre Dame running back Jadarian Price with the final pick of the first round. Given that Seattle lost star running back Kenneth Walker III in free agency to the Kansas City Chiefs, Price should eventually have a chance to take over as the Seahawks' RB1. However, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that the sense around the Seahawks is that Price "won't have to be a bell cow right away." Seattle running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) suffered a torn ACL in January, but should be able to make an impact once healthy. The Seahawks also signed former Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson in free agency. While Price is unquestionably the highest-upside running back in Seattle, it appears as though the team may look to bring him along slowly in his rookie season.

Seahawks Draft Jadarian Price at No. 32 Overall

The Seattle Seahawks have selected Notre Dame running back prospect Jadarian Price with the 32nd and final pick in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft. The opening night of the draft concludes with two running backs off the board, and both of them were from Notre Dame. Together, Price and new Cardinals running back Jeremiyah Love made history, marking the first time in the common draft era that the first two running backs selected were from the same school. As the 1B option behind Love, Price racked up 761 scrimmage yards and 13 offensive touchdowns (plus two special teams touchdowns) last year. He's the early favorite to open the 2026 season as the Seahawks' primary running back after they lost Kenneth Walker III to the Chiefs in free agency. Since Zach Charbonnet (knee) is still working his way back from an ACL tear, Price's main competition in this backfield is free agent signing Emanuel Wilson. The Notre Dame product ranks as the RB26 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings, and he has even higher upside given his prominent role in a successful, Super Bowl-winning offense.
