They should be looking for crisp route runners that can get YAC or at least just crisp route runners. That's what Young needs, not big athletes that aren't really good at their job.

Well the range that Taylor is likely in is where you can make some gambles on guys like him(3rd/4th round). That is what I viewed XL as and so far he has been.

If we can't get McMillian early, WR needs to be a FA thing. Some big splash signing like Higgins or big trade for Wilson. Outside that, this draft does look like one I would expend the 8th pick or even our 2nd rounder on a WR. I know there will be guys that pop in the 2nd and 3rd but it's a crapshoot in this class, IMO

I don't know if they need a big splash, but they do need at least NFL average besides AT.

I meant to say WOULDN'T expend the 8th or 2nd.

I am fine getting an elite guy at WR like Higgins or Wilson. That is something we are not going to be able to draft because we don't have anyone in the building that knows how to evaluate WR talent.

Maybe they need to talk to college coaches and ask if guys they're interested in can run routes. Get the college guys drunk so they tell the truth or something.😁

That, or just go with production until they find someone that can evaluate WR talent.

WR's seem like a relatively simple evaluation. We just fug it up constantly.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
