You’re not supposed to pick running backs in the early rounds of the NFL draft. That has never stopped the Seattle Seahawks from doing so before and it didn’t stop them last night from taking Michigan State stud Kenneth Walker III in Round 2 at No. 41 overall.
The nerds aren’t happy but former Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman for one really likes the pick, which is right up head coach Pete Carroll’s alley.
I really like the Seahawks pick of Kenneth Walker III. He’s a game changer that allows them to get back to their run first philosophy. This is a Pete Carroll pick. pic.twitter.com/4XLUZ1A3LP

Like it or not, this franchise clearly values running backs much more than the average NFL team. Fans should probably not be shocked if they draft another one today.
