JJ Zachariason projects Jadarian Price as the second RB off the board in the 2026 class, likely going in the second round though potentially late first round. Price's analytical profile is described as 'extremely weird' and an outlier for a day-two pick. Pro-rated reception share sits at 3% (third percentile), adjusted yards per team play at 10th percentile, and adjusted yards per team pass attempt at 12th percentile. While he posted good explosive run rate and yards after contact per attempt via PFF, the combine revealed concerning metrics: he weighed 203 lbs (lighter than expected at 210-212 lbs) and ran a 4.49 40-time that doesn't align with his explosive run profile. Scouts are concerned about pass protection and that he's not an elite receiver. If Price isn't catching passes or excelling in pass protection, he's being drafted as a pure explosive runner—a limited role. Top Zap model comp is D1 Ronald with Jordan Scarlet secondary comp. Zachariason states: 'if Jarian Price goes to Seattle, it's going to be tough' to justify the investment, though he'd consider him in dynasty drafts at ninth round ADP or later. His draft capital projection of 50–60 is significantly lower than EMTT Johnson's 87, explaining the model's RB2 ranking gap.NegativeRoleMar 28, 2026
The source included Judarian Price as a rookie running back selection in a draft build being discussed, indicating consideration of the rookie RB in the current draft landscape despite the weak 2026 rookie running back class.NegativeUsageFeb 25, 2026
Notre Dame RB whose touches were managed due to depth chart featuring Anias Williams Junior as starter and a passing-down back role. Wore down and got banged up late in 2024 season, leading to limited carries (eight carries vs. Indiana in first game). This touch distribution is a minor fantasy concern compared to prospects like Gentry who could be counted on for consistent volume.PositiveProjectionFeb 25, 2026
Notre Dame RB ranked #2 in running back class by the source's rankings and ADP. Shared backfield with Jeremiah Love in a complementary role designed to manage Love's workload and keep him fresh.
