Seahawks’ general manager John Schneider havde allerede inden draftens begyndelse gjort det klart, at han ønskede at handle sig til en tidligere plads i første runde. Men som han udtrykte det: "Det tager to at danse" – og denne gang fandt han ingen villige partnere.
Det efterlod Seahawks med det 32. og sidste valg i første runde af NFL-draften. Her valgte holdet den tidligere Notre Dame-løber Jadarian Price.
Med dette valg blev Price den anden løber fra Notre Dame, der blev draftet i første runde. Arizona Cardinals havde allerede valgt Jeremiyah Love som nummer tre samlet, og de to var de eneste løbere, der blev draftet torsdag aften.
I sin sidste sæson på universitetet løb Price 113 gange for 674 yards og 11 touchdowns. Derudover returnerede han to kickoffs for scoringer. Han kommer nu til en Seahawks-hold, der netop har mistet Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker til free agency og samtidig har Zach Charbonnet på sidelinjen efter en knæskade. Det betyder, at Price potentielt kan få en langt mere central rolle i angrebet end det var tilfældet i South Bend, hvor han delte bærerollen med Love.
