DT is a definite possibility.

It's almost easier right now to say what it's not going to be.

It's not going to be a quarterback, runningback, tight end or linebacker. Probably not a safety either, and I'm growing more doubtful it'll be a receiver.

If Hurney is back I really don't want Ingram sitting there when the Panthers come up.

Well, in the NFL you really need five running backs to compete. We feel that with the addition of Ingram and the resigning of Williams, we'll be able to overcome the losses of Beason, Kalil, Davis, and Chris Gamble.

We feel we're a better team.

P.S. I really hate to keep saying it, but as bad as we are this year the Armanti pick should get Hurney fired in the offseason.

Unless he develops into something special. He hasn't had a chance to be a bad pick yet imo unless one was expecting immediate impact.

hell people on these boards drank the tallent cool-aid we had at DT for months prior to the last draft. it was clear then we needed dt help, and most people on the boards cried "but we have all this tallent from trades last year". where are all those guys now? we screwed the pooch in 2008 with brown (loosing the 1st in 2009), and just missed the best DT class (top heavy) in quite a few years because of it.

love to say that there will be a great DT avalible to us coming up, but this class isnt near as good (hell i would take brian price, a 2nd rounder last year, before about any DT in this class, even the jrs if they come out). without a 2nd we better hope a ton of poo comes out on austin and he drops to the 3rd. even then austin has more hype than production (great tools for a dt, but not the production a #1 HS DT was supposed to have). he could be a guy like hardy, better production than expected, or be a really special athlete that never quite produces to his abilities.

When rebuilding, and that IS what we are doing, you cannot afford to take luxury/project/reach picks in the 2nd round. You need solid talent that your team can build around. And trust me, we need some serious solid talent.

As I have said before, if you are winning 11-14 games every year, you can afford that pick, obviously we are not, and we could not.

      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
