Seahawks GM John Schneider Paying No Mind to Jalen Carter's Top-10 Workout Plan

Drew Rosenhaus made headlines when he stated his client, Jalen Carter, would only workout for top 10 teams in the 2023 NFL Draft, which includes the Seattle Seahawks.

After Georgia Bulldogs star Jalen Carter's pro day workout left much to be desired, one would think he'd want to work out for as many teams as possible before the NFL Draft.

But...

His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, told ESPN's Adam Schefter that his client would only be doing private workouts for teams in the top 10 of the draft board.

Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider was a guest on Seattle Sports Radio and gave his thoughts on Carter's pre-draft workout plan.

"It’s a process," Schneider said. "I’m sure Drew had a reason and Jalen had a reason for cutting it off at a certain point. That’s their prerogative. I really don’t have an opinion one way or the other on that.”

So, while Carter's college tape has him as one of the best prospects in the draft, his off-field issues coupled with his pro day workout and now the inability to want to work out for teams outside the top 10 is rather interesting.

But Schneider understands the logistical reasons behind Carter's decision to limit the number of draft workouts he does.

“Agents are gonna advise their clients how they deem fit," Schneider said. "Obviously, I’m sure a lot of people want to spend time with Jalen. There’s only so much time you have with these guys. There’s only a couple of weeks post-combine before the draft to be flying around the country.

Whether or not it plays out how Carter and Rosenhaus want remains to be seen, but they feel confident that the defensive tackle will be taken inside the first 10 picks.

The other question is if, for some reason, Carter isn't taken with one of the first 10 picks (Seattle currently has pick five), then who will take him, having yet to see him workout privately? It will make for interesting viewing to see precisely where he lands.
