Google: Rashid Shaheed is a highly-regarded wide receiver and return specialist for the New Orleans Saints, praised for his speed, big-play ability, and explosive potential. After a breakout rookie season in 2022, he was selected for the Pro Bowl as a returner in 2023, but a season-ending injury limited his 2024 campaign. As he heads into the 2025 season, he is expected to be a major part of the offense and is currently a subject of trade speculation.

OK, nice move, but I hope this isn't the big jaw dropping trade everyone was referencing.

Are you for real, man?

He's going to be WR2.

Why do you think he'll be a Special Teams returner?

They didn't give up a 4th and 5th rounder for a special teams guy!

Giving up a lot for a team that should still needs to spread the ball more. Seattle still needs to feed Barner, Arroyo and Horton in order to develop the young talent, as well as run the ball still. Horton, has already shown he can be developed to be a deep threat.

Yeah but getting a Vet to take some of that pressure off of Horton (who is a future WR2) is smarter, though.

IMO, a 4th should've been good enough. But I'm sure JS will recoup one of those picks during next year's draft.
It's been reported that there were two other teams trying to trade for Shaheed... so a 4th wasn't going to get it done.

I like the trade.... a VERY solid pickup at the mid-way point of the season.
