Latest takes
“” – Kevin English ( Draft Sharks ) Jadarian Price (RB – SEA) “I’m targeting Seahawks rookie Jadarian Price in every draft. Let me start by saying that during the pre-draft process, I wasn’t in love with Price and his skill set, but if we have learned anything, it’s that opportunity matters more in redraft fantasy leagues than talent.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 30“There’s uncertainty surrounding Zach Charbonnet ‘s availability in Week 1. If he’s out, first-round draft pick Jadarian Price has a chance to become the No. 1 RB in this offense.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 29“Jadarian Price (RB – SEA) Going in a similar range to Tuten, Price offers a real boom case if his skill set fits his team’s scheme as well as expected, potentially relegating the incumbent starter to a backup role once that player returns from a serious injury.”

“Seattle lost Kenneth Walker III in free agency, while Zach Charbonnet is coming off a torn ACL and likely won’t be ready to play until the midway point of the season. Therefore, Price has a chance to be a massive steal with this draft pick, especially given his play at the start of training camp.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 26“Price is a wonderful rushing talent ranking 25th and fifth in yards after contact per attempt, 31st and 3rd in breakaway rate, and 15th and 39th in elusive rating over the last two seasons in college (per PFF). Price is an intriguing RB2 with a ton of upside in 2026.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 24“Jadarian Price was selected in the first round of the NFL Draft by the Seahawks to be their new Kenneth Walker (and maybe more). Walker led the backfield last year for Seattle, but they limited his usage in the red zone and in the passing game.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 24“Round 7: Jadarian Price (RB – SEA) Fellow Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet is still recovering from his knee injury, meaning first-round rookie Jadarian Price has a chance to become the lead back.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“Jadarian Price (RB – SEA) Believe it or not, Jeremiyah Love isn’t the only highly-touted rookie running back drafted from Notre Dame this offseason.”
Evan Tarracciano· Aug 19“Jadarian Price has a chance to lead this backfield with Zach Charbonnet still recovering from his knee injury. Price is explosive, and I’ll be curious to see if he gets passing game work in the NFL.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 18“Therefore, Price has a chance to be a massive steal at his current ADP, especially given his play at the start of training camp. Last year, the Seahawks had a run-first offense, ranking third in rushing attempts, averaging 25.8 per game from their running backs.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 16“Jadarian Price (RB – SEA) It was clear when Jadarian Price was drafted that he would carry the majority of the workload in Seattle. The Seahawks drafted him in the first round to replace Kenneth Walker III , and the team has treated him like a starter from the jump.”
Lawrence Iacona· Aug 11“If Charbonnet isn’t back and rookie Jadarian Price can’t adapt to the NFL quickly, could we see even more volume for Smith-Njigba?”
Tom Strachan· Aug 11“Jadarian Price is one of my favorite mid-round running back targets this season as he’s projected to open the year as Seattle’s No. 1 RB. Price was electric during his time at Notre Dame, averaging more than six yards per carry in each of his three seasons.”
Kurt Blakeway· Aug 7“Round 9: Jadarian Price (RB – SEA) With Kenneth Walker III leaving for the Kansas City Chiefs, the Seahawks drafted Jadarian Price in the first round.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 5“The other player younger than Tuten is Jadarian Price , who has a looming split backfield with Zach Charbonnet .”
Mike Anderson· Aug 3
“For all those reasons, David Montgomery is a player I am not leaving any drafts with, especially because this potential top-12 running back can be drafted.” – Adam Dove ( The Fantasy Couriers ) Travis Etienne Jr.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 30“Montgomery has played seven seasons in the NFL and has had 201 carries or more in five of them. He fell under that number in the last two seasons (185 in 2024 and 158 in 2025), but that was mostly due to how utterly unstoppable Jahmyr Gibbs is.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 29“David Montgomery (RB – HOU) When Houston added David Montgomery on a two-year, $16.5 million deal to pry him away from Detroit, I was hopeful that the Texans would allow him to immediately slide into a featured role. One where he would dominate the backfield touches for the team, operating as the clear-cut No. 1 RB for the first time since his days with the Chicago Bears.”

“David Montgomery (RB – HOU) “ David Montgomery landed in a great situation in Houston! He is running behind a much-improved, revamped line.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 27“In seven seasons, Montgomery only has two 1,000-yard rushing seasons. However, he has finished as a top-24 RB in six of them.”
Colt Williams· Aug 27“In addition to the headline question, I was asked about keeping David Montgomery for a sixth-round pick in half-PPR leagues.”
Josh Shepardson· Aug 22“Round 6: David Montgomery (RB – HOU) David Montgomery was traded to the Houston Texans, and he’ll immediately bolster their backfield.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“It’s no surprise that David Montgomery believes he can be a lead back in the NFL and carry a full workload.”
Ellis Johnson· Aug 19“added much-needed help to the offensive line and a dependable lead-back in David Montgomery .”
Kyle Lesti· Aug 11“With the Lions losing David Montgomery , that should open up some extra touches in the offense, and Jameson can see a handful of those.” – Muntradamus ( Beast Dome ) “I like a lot of WRs in this range, so I’m going to go with one of the more affordable options in Jameson Williams , whose current ADP is at WR 25.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11“David Montgomery (RB – HOU) With a stable workload and an undervalued draft price, David Montgomery is a clear choice to draft in the middle rounds.”
Lawrence Iacona· Aug 11“The biggest reason Gibbs should be the RB1 is that he no longer shares the backfield with David Montgomery .”
Kyle Zeigler· Aug 10“David Montgomery, Tyler Allgeier, Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kareem Hunt, Jalen Hurts – 8 Jordan Love is the only QB in the last decade to:”
The FF Newsletter· Aug 6“David Montgomery (RB – HOU) At this point in the draft, I didn’t have a running back yet, so I wanted to start taking swings on players I felt had starter upside, and David Montgomery is definitely one of them”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 6“Last season, Montgomery bested Marks in explosive run rate, missed tackle rate, rushing success rate, yards after contact per attempt, and yards per route run. Legit, every per-touch metric that I care about. Montgomery is the superior back, even at this stage of his career, and he’ll be a strong volume-driven RB2 that could flirt with RB1 production.”
