The Seahawks face a pivotal decision in the 2026 NFL Draft, and Brock and Salk dive deep into whether they should take running back Jadarian Price with the 32nd pick. Brock makes a passionate case for Price, highlighting his 4.2 GPA, small-town grit, 100-yard kickoff return touchdowns, and self-motivated drive—traits that align with the team’s culture. Despite concerns over his low carry count (280 in four years), Brock defends the pick by pointing to Josh Jacobs’ similar college workload and success. Mike Salk counters with a strategic argument: while Price is compelling, the Seahawks may need to prioritize a corner or edge defender given their defensive needs and the depth at running back. The hosts debate whether the team should trade back to accumulate more picks, especially with a weak running back class and a strong defensive talent pool. The conversation is punctuated by a bizarre twist: leaked photos of Titans coach Mike Vrabel in a years-long affair with a reporter, which the hosts condemn as a major failure of NFL leadership and PR. The episode ends with two callers—Blaine from Wenatchee and Dustin from Vancouver—offering wildly different and often absurd draft strategies, underscoring the show’s blend of serious analysis and comedic chaos. The episode reveals that the Seahawks’ draft strategy hinges not just on talent but on culture fit, long-term planning, and organizational integrity.
Jadarian Price’s 4.2 GPA, small-town background, and 100-yard kickoff return touchdowns make him a compelling cultural fit for the Seahawks.
Despite only 280 carries in college, Price’s production and versatility justify a first-round selection, similar to Josh Jacobs’ trajectory.
The Seahawks may need to trade back to preserve draft capital, especially if they’re not certain about taking a running back at 32.
Mike Vrabel’s six-year affair with a reporter, revealed through leaked photos, exposes a major failure in NFL personal conduct policy and PR management.
The NFL’s delayed, reactive response to the Vrabel scandal—especially scheduling counseling on draft day—was seen as tone-deaf and damaging.
