The Seahawks selected eight players in the NFL Draft, but one has the potential to capture the fan base's attention.

The Seattle Seahawks entered the NFL Draft with only four selections, so general manager John Schneider knew he had his work cut out.

But after some shrewd deals, the Seahawks would walk out of Pittsburgh with eight players, giving Mike Macdonald's team some decent depth at several positions.

Before the draft, we saw several mocks that had the Seahawks either going for running back Jadarian Price or an edge rusher like Cashius Howell.

And when it came to the No. 32 overall pick, Seattle didn't trade back as many had thought; instead, they drafted Price and got a starting-caliber running back for Brian Fleury.

Not the most well-known back in the class, thanks to playing behind Jeremiyah Love at Notre Dame, but Price has a good track record in college, and many think he'll be a great asset in Seattle.

And for CBS Sports' Bryan DeArdo, he thinks Price will be one draft pick that Seattle fans will obsess over in 2026.

"Seattle didn't have a ton of needs entering the draft, which makes sense considering they just hoisted the Lombardi Trophy," DeArdo wrote. That said, running back was a clear hole for them after losing Kenneth Walker III in free agency and Zach Charnbonet recovering from an ACL tear.

"While Price may have been second-fiddle for the Fight Irish, fans will quickly see why he was still a first-round talent. Fans will love Price's downhill running style and his ability to make a single cut and barrel for additional yardage."

His brutal running style caught the eye of scouts, but so too did his ability with the ball, as he averaged no less than 5.8 yards per carry across his three college seasons.

He brings that to Fleury's offense, Seattle is cooking.

With Zach Charbonnet still recovering from his ACL injury and likely to miss the early portion of the season, and Emanuel Wilson, George Holani, and Kenny McIntosh seen as bit-part players, Price could be set for a big workload right out of the gate.

And if he's on the field early in his rookie season, and performs well, there's every reason to suggest the Seattle fans might take a liking to the Notre Dame running back.
