Trade for a QB?

Dalton is barely serviceable at this point and Young is what he is. Short of playing Hooker, they are behind the eight ball at this point.

They should have figured this out months ago, but here we are. I'm not sure who they would trade or if they have anyone of worth that they can afford to lose.

Need to do something. The QB room is empty.

Any ideas?

Unless that QB is named Jameis, I have no interest in any other QB this year.

Jameis is the type who can help your young weapons get better as he can make any throw, even though he'll also end up costing you games as well.

But we can't be giving up more assets for QBs that won't solve anything for us.  Jameis at least would be worth whatever we have to give up because of how much it will help our WRs and TEs

Need to wait until the BY injury injury is known. I've seen ankle and if its a high ankle those can last 4-6. Im not video doc expert, that play didn't look like anything that was IR'd worthy..... but he didn't finish either....so....

FYI there is zero Free agents. Hooker would be the best option.

It's most definitely not a high ankle since the injury seemed to be when he got stepped on, don't think you can get a high ankle sprain without twisting/rolling the ankle

Yeah, it’s surprising how quickly Dalton has deteriorated from the time he stepped in last season.  Age caught up fast.

Hooker was one of the guys I wanted us to look at as a possible backup/competitor to Bryce when he came out in the draft, but from what Dan Campbell said and what I’ve read, Hooker was pretty frustrating to watch in Detroit…  so we may be in for a rough go of it.

Fiz mentioned in the game thread, that looked more like a broken bone type deal, and he’s in the medical field.  I would tend to agree, as a grizzled veteran of ankle sprains, I would be surprised if that’s what it is.  Didn’t appear that he rolled it at all.

    • 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
