Seahawks Rookie RB Jadarian Price: Survivor-Pick Read

Seahawks lean on rookie RB Jadarian Price

When Seattle's rookies reported to training camp on Friday, first-round running back Jadarian Price was the headliner. The Seahawks are planning a heavy workload for the rookie right out of the gate, and there's talk he could also handle kick-return duties. That's a big role for a first-year player, and it signals Seattle wants the ball in his hands early and often.

What it means for your survivor pick

A rookie's projected workload is a story to watch, not a reason to spend the Seahawks. Ceiling and volume don't tell you whether Seattle is favored in any given week, and that's the only question that matters for a safe survivor pick. Until we have the matchups and spreads in front of us, there's nothing here that upgrades the Seahawks into a play — camp buzz around a single position doesn't move the needle on a survivor slate. Keep Price on your radar as the season takes shape, but pick against the numbers, not the headlines. If you're still setting up your season, you can start a free survivor pool and track how Seattle's schedule sorts out before committing them to any week.
