QB Andy Dalton in the 3rd or 4th please....

Reminds me a lot of Drew Brees. 6'2 Senior out of TCU . Projected a 4th rounder but i believe will move up to 3rd.

Ever year in college his completion percentage went up. Every year in college his QB rating went up (166 this season). Every year the number of sacks he took went down.

I believe he is playing in the senior bowl. Hopefully we have some folks looking at him. Could be a late round steal. Most places rank him the 7th best QB in this draft.

I like him, the biggest knock that seems to go against him is that he played for TCU. If we could get him in the 4th or with a conditional 3rd round pick I would be pretty happy.

Not a good pick...he will be a coach in a few years. He reminds me of all those QBs with big numbers that come out of Texas Tech.

He's tough and very smart. But his arm is in no way an NFL arm. He reminds me alot of the guy who was the qb for the U when they lost to Ohio state in the Championship game years ago. The guy who threw to Johnson (with the Texans) in college. great college qb but just does not have the arm to play at the next level. I hope he makes it but I don't think he will.

Sign me up. I live in Fort Worth, and thus have been able to the attend many TCU games (I'm not a TCU fan, so this is not a fan's point of view), but when he plays he takes complete command of the field. He has great vision, a strong arm (despite those who haven't seen him argue he puts a great ball in a place that his receivers can run after catch, nice deep ball too), goes through progressions, good athlete. If there is any QB I'd like outside of Luck, it's this guy... Will be steal of draft.

By the way, a guy I work with knows this guy, says he's super smart and all ready took and passed the Bar Exam and will be going to Law School if NFL doesn't work out... Very smart guy. High Character and does a lot in the community even as a player.

    • 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
