Hour 1 - Seahawks Draft Jadarian Price, Mike Denbrock

The Seattle Seahawks made a bold, long-anticipated move in the 2026 NFL Draft by selecting Notre Dame running back Jadarian Price with the 32nd overall pick—a decision that both hosts, Brock Huard and Mike Salk, called a 'duh moment' after a perfect storm of circumstances. With Ken Walker gone and Zach Charbonnet injured, the Seahawks faced a clear need at running back, and with no quality alternatives on the board and two teams trading out ahead of them, the pick became inevitable. The hosts praised the move as simple, strategic, and perfectly timed, especially after Chris Johnson’s selection removed any doubt. They highlighted Price’s rare combination of elite physical traits—explosiveness, vision, pass-catching ability, and toughness—along with his resilience as a two-time cancer survivor and his unselfish, team-first mentality. The interview with Notre Dame’s offensive coordinator, Mike Denbrock, revealed Price as a quiet but relentless competitor who maximized every opportunity, even when sharing the backfield with Jeremiah Love. The hosts argue this pick strengthens the Seahawks’ Super Bowl window, balances their high-priced wide receivers with a true running game, and provides cost control via a fifth-year option. Despite some skepticism about drafting a running back in the first round, they insist this was a rare exception where the fit, need, and timing aligned perfectly.
