Yeah.  I think trading for him taking on about $9m in salary (guestimate) is a luxury for a contender looking for a #2 to compete.  We have Kupp in Thielen.  I am so worried that we overpay for a free agent WR playing in a good system (like we did the Eagles RB) and he underperforms here.

Smart worry. It's how bad teams stay bad. We'll see Morgan's mettle this year, it's when most GMs fug up.

This had me curious so I looked up tee higgins and adam theilens career stats.  Adam thielen average a higher yard per catch last year than tee did.  Tees injury history suprised me he has played in 70 of 90 nfl games.  Not sure him or Kup is worth a lot of money but would be worth seeing how they did here if they came are right price.  Thielens career stats are pretty impressive he has been putting up good sometimes great numbers for a long time.  He is definatly a bargain for the panthers

the more I think about higgins the less I think he will be very good on another team he has jamar chase taking most of the coverage from him, and he has only averaged 65.6 yards per game.  Kupp has averaged 74.8 yards per game or 8th out of current active nfl wrs 51.3 for adam thielen   I think Kupp if healthy is the better WR, I think higgins could be a great wr2, but do not believe either are worth salary demands.

Just my opinion but I'd rather sign a couple cheap alternatives like Slayton and mvs, draft a mid round guy and develop Coker, x and jt than make a big splash for kupp or higgins

I agree. Slayton and or Hollywood Brown are two names that come to mind. We need a speedster to stretch the defense

I think Kupp is on the backside. Unless this is a value deal(we would have to overpay in that value range, obviously) it doesn't make a ton of sense. 

Seems like he would be a lot more interested in going to a contender than a team that is very unlikely to see the playoffs in the remainder of his career.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      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. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      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
