Well now reality is gonna set in. All that preseason hype about him being able to cover Jimmy Graham is going to be put to bed next week. Noone in this league has come close to covering him with saftey help, and just because we draft a LBer, he has the skills to do it. Nope. It is going to hurt being right about this, but at least my fantasy teams wont suffer.

I agree. I was on the don't draft Luke Band wagon and got stoned because he was a great player and a safe pick. The fact is he is a good defender against the run,but he didn't help us do the number one thing we needed to address this offseason. Rush the passer. He brings nothing to that area and after seeing get beat by blitzcrieg or whoever the bucs were man handling him with all game not sure he is that great against the run. He blew alot of arm tackles and was beaten in the passing game by Martin and on a few crossing routes.Never liked the pick still don't.

I was disappointed in Keuchly as well, but I'm not putting all the blame on him. Given the total amount of defensive plays, he was probably on the field for only 50% of the time if that. I was looking for his number all game, and couldn't find it half the time. If they are going to take someone out, take Anderson out. (In fact, if TD is fully healthy, I would put him in the starting line-up with Beason and Keuchly)

      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
