Rashid Shaheed of the Seattle Seahawks is being targeted as a worthwhile late-round pick in fantasy drafts by PFN’s Kyle Soppe. After struggling to find a role following his trade to Seattle, Shaheed averaged just three targets per game. However, a full offseason with the team and a potential increase in his workload could lead to significant production this season, particularly with quarterback Sam Darnold expected to utilize Shaheed's speed in the passing game. As Shaheed is currently being drafted around WR56, he represents a low-risk choice with potential upside.
- •Shaheed managed 15 catches for 188 yards with no touchdowns in 2025.
- •He had a successful run in New Orleans before midseason trade.
- •Shaheed is being targeted as a late-round pick in fantasy drafts.
- •He spent the spring building chemistry with quarterback Sam Darnold.
- •Seattle plans to feature him more in their offense this season.
