Week 2 of the NFL preseason is wrapping up, and if you haven’t started your fantasy draft prep, you’re officially running out of time. Preseason games always give us a peek at potential sleepers, those hidden gems waiting in the middle and late rounds. Sure, championship rosters aren’t built on top draft picks alone, but finding that value late? That’s what wins leagues. And let me tell you, there’s a specific Seahawks running back with an ADP that’s so low, it’s criminal, and he’s about to make some serious noise early this season.
The Seahawks RB You NEED to Target
Everyone’s talking about our rookie running back Jadarian Price, and honestly, they should be. He’s likely to see a fairly heavy workload for the Seahawks early in 2026. He’s got that high-volume skill set, and with Zach Charbonnet recovering from a torn ACL he suffered back in mid-January, Price won’t initially compete for touches. With an ADP of 69, Price is already on a lot of radars, and he could absolutely outperform that draft position. But while everyone’s grabbing Price, there’s an even deeper cut on our own depth chart that you absolutely cannot miss: George Holani.
Holani is listed ahead of Price on Seattle’s depth chart, and this guy is a legitimate sleeper with an ADP of 260. Seriously, 260! That number is insane when you consider his early-season potential. He’s likely to have more value at the beginning of the year, making him a perfect late-round grab for anyone looking to snag an immediate impact player without breaking the bank. Don’t overthink it, just pick him up late in your drafts. This is the kind of move that turns good fantasy teams into great ones.
Draft Day Strategy: Don’t Get Caught Slipping
Uncovering value at any stage of a fantasy draft boils down to preparation and accurate projections. Top-tier guys like Ja’Marr Chase are gone early because we know they’ll get high volume. But with sleepers like Holani, you gotta dig deeper. We’re talking practice reports, preseason film study, depth charts, and even who they’re playing with in the supporting cast. Use every piece of information to make those educated guesses on roles.
And have a plan, but be ready to pivot. If you’re going for a zero-RB build, jump on those running back sleepers a couple of rounds earlier than your wide receivers or tight ends. It’s always better to make a move a round early than a round too late. If an early run on receivers leaves second-tier RBs sitting there in the middle rounds, ditch the zero-RB plan for a bit and grab a couple of backs. Oh, and for those looking at quarterback fliers, Minnesota Vikings QB Kyler Murray is sitting with an ADP of 152. He’s trending as a mid-level streaming option behind guys like Bo Nix, but his dangerous dual-threat skill set offers real opportunity if you’re willing to take a chance.
Roster building doesn’t end with the draft, folks. With roster cuts looming right around August 30, a lot of roles and situations are still going to shift. Don’t be afraid to drop a late-round pick or two to snatch up waiver wire talent you trust. So, as you hit those draft boards, remember Holani. That 260 ADP might be the biggest steal of the year. Go Hawks!
