Trade deadline

I will truly be disappointed if we sit idle and do nothing. Although that may be better then something stupid like trading Dowdle for a 6th rounder. I just wish the organization would do something to keep the momentum going. Panthers football interest is as high as its been in awhile, so lets do something worth talking about!

That's awkward - Breece Hall making trade me Jets videos left and right, and the Jets are like "Nah, we will keep you"

Who was the db for Miami who did that when they blew the team up a few years ago

Jalen Ramsey responded “they expect to find one of us in the wreckage, brother”

I think we are still 1-2 years and 1-2 very fortunate drafts from being competitive, no need to rush it.

This season has shown in the NFC, it's anybody's to win. The Eagles are definitely the favorites, but after that? I mean, we just beat the Packers. Who else scares you? The Seahawks?  We are a true #2 receiver and 2 players away on defense from being a legit threat to compete in the playoffs this year. And that's with BY at QB.

Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks

Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed
Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick

Seahawks' grade: A-
Saints' grade: B+

One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better.

The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise.

Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers.

As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba.

This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade.

Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed.

The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.

Considering he was a UDFA for the Saints, they did pretty well getting what they did for a player they were never resigning
