I like that you put route runner.  it seems we don't value this trait too much.  We are looking at players that perform well in college but do not have the route running skills necessary for the NFL. 

I'd rather a good route running speedster than a player that might be faster but runs poor routes. 

Blame analytics for that I believe chasing the size speed specimen. When time and time again crisp route running will always keep a role in the league

Dave Canales will be available.

Think theres any chance they end up hiring one of Canales, Eviro, Slowik, Callahan etc without waiting for a second interview with MacDonald or Ben Johnson?

Nah, Tepper's number 1 guy is Johnson, no ways he hires a coach with out talking to Ben first.

I think Johnson is still the prize.

Wouldn't want to lose our on the best option just because we're impatient.

Doubt it. It’s probably going to be drawn out a little longer now. Too many teams would have interest in Johnson, Monken, and Macdonald to go ahead and snag one now out of fear.

I wonder when the first hire will happen, feels like Johnson might hold up the whole thing.

I think Falcons hire Belichick or Chargers hire Harbaugh in the next few days. I know both have interest in Johnson but I feel like they are kinda competing with one another on their HC pool. 

No clue what Tennessee is doing, they are interviewing a bunch of randoms so who knows.

Seattle could go ahead and grab Quinn if that’s their guy. But they may want to hold out to talk to Johnson first.

    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
