Seahawks Likely to Take a Running Back Early in the Draft?
The Seattle Seahawks let Super Bowl MVP running back Kenneth Walker III walk in free agency to the Kansas City Chiefs. Zach Charbonnet (knee) suffered a torn ACL in the playoffs in January and might not be ready for the start of the 2026 regular season, which is why The Athletic's Michael-Shawn Dugar believes the Seahawks will "probably" draft a RB in April with one of their first three picks at Nos. 32, 64, or 96. The Seahawks have a history of valuing the RB position more in the draft than in free agency, too. The Athletic's Dane Brugler recently mocked Notre Dame running back Jadarian Price to Seattle with the No. 64 overall pick. Depending on who the Seahawks pick up at RB in the draft and Charbonnet's early-season status, incumbent George Holani could be a sleeper for playing time as the Seahawks look to defend their title in 2026.
