Field Gulls on Jadarian Price
From the article
Seattle selected Jadarian Price with the 32nd overall pick. Price has talent and could develop into a very good player. The question was always how prepared he was to immediately become the Seahawks' RB1... Three games into the season, his ball-security issues have made that concern more obvious. Price already has two fumbles and lost playing time during the loss to Washington.
STACKED’s take
Price's fumbles and lost snaps expose lack of proven backup depth behind unproven RB1.
Seattle selected Price with the 32nd overall pick as a prospect expected to develop into the Seahawks' RB1, but he was not coming off a history of being an established full-time starter. The pick was heavily based on what Seattle believed he could become. The problem was the lack of a safety net behind him. During the offseason, Zach Charbonnet's availability was uncertain, creating a real possibility that Price would have to carry the backfield immediately. The alternatives—George Holani and Emanuel Wilson—neither had a track record that gave Seattle confidence as an experienced back capable of handling a significant workload. Three games into the season, Price's ball-security issues have made that concern more obvious; he already has two fumbles and lost playing time during the loss to Washington.
