WR Rashid Shaheed, NO (1 Viewer)

Listed as full practice today. With Olave a game-time decision and potentially out, Shaheed is an interesting potential replacement play if one is desperate a bit.
 
I am one of those desparate people, doesn't have a designation so looks good to go, need him to be returning kicks which would assume he would
 
I don't think he slides into Olave's spot necessarily, though he could. When Thomas went down, A.T. Perry moved into Thomas's spot.

So it's not a guarantee. I'm firing him up over some poor options.
 
I’m just sick I pulled him at the last minute. I have Nico in over him as some encouraging signs of him playing this week. Shaheed has been meh since he has come back and I shot myself in the foot I fear. Shoulda left him in but hindsight is always …

He’s too boom / bust for the playoffs if you have good options.

I did the same thing for the same reason. We can be sick together. As -OZ- notes, he really is boom/bust when you think about the playoffs. He's a good upside play if you need upside, which is why I'm kicking myself. I needed some otherworldly performances to advance given the injuries to my team, and he would have given one.

But all things constant, it wasn't a bad play to leave him on the bench if you have options.

I have options but they are gimpy options with Nico and no CJ. I’ll take my Pepto and pray Nico can play
 
Saints tendered WR Rashid Shaheed.
Shaheed is an exclusive rights free agent who will now return to the Saints on a one-year deal for $985k. The former UDFA made the team in 2022 and has spent two seasons with them, totaling 74 receptions for 1,207 yards and seven touchdowns over that span. In addition to his receiving prowess, Shaheed is also heavily utilized on special teams. He returned a combined 43 kicks and punts for 723 yards and one touchdown last season and has totaled 1,000 or more all-purpose yards in each of his first two years. After seeing 75 targets in 15 games last season, Shaheed should have a chance to offer meaningful contribution on offense next season and is well worth a late-round flyer in best ball drafts.
 
Dude has carved out a nice role for himself in his first 2 years, which is not easy as a UDFA. His ECR is WR61 and (too-early-to-tell) ADP is WR60 / 127th overall.

Good value atm. Could be a nice boom/bust Flex or bye week filler as your redraft WR4/WR5.
I had him last year and he was very frustrating to own. I don't think I ever played him when he had his boom weeks. I like the player but as a fantasy asset he is frustrating. Great for best ball. Not so great for lineup decision making.

Who knows? Maybe he gets a little more consistent this year and is worth a flex start most weeks or WR3 with weekly top 12 WR upsdie.

For sure. But I expect the progression to continue.

Y1 - 12 g 34 targets 298 snaps (42%)
Y2 - 15 g 75 targets 604 snaps (58%)

ATP is still raw; Wake Forest players are a bit like Tennessee, the offense is so different from anything in the NFL. Takes awhile to teach those guys things like precision landmarks & being the right depth on your routes.

Targets are earned, and I think Rashid will earn more than people are projecting rn.

Like Gabe Davis, I will consider him in my best ball league, but maybe higher.

I agree that he should continue to improve and get more snaps and targets. I am a fan. Does the kick return action increase injury risk significantly?

AT Perry seems like a student of the game and could see an increase as well.
 
Another guy whose ADP makes zero sense whatsoever.
Hadn’t looked. How high is Rashid Shaheed going?

I was one, a year ago, who saw a near-future real-life NFL team #1 wideout. I still think he’s a better top-to-bottom player than Chris Olave. But if he’s being taken in redrafts as even a borderline fantasy #2 WR … that’s too high.

Well, he’s a #2 on their team this year. What he did with limited action last year was incredible .. He’s a legit WR2 in fantasy with the increase target share and the new OC from SF .. He’s going to use him like Deebo .. Just gotta get Sheed in space, and then it’s good night for the defense. I would argue he’s just as explosive as Tyreek .. Has great hands too, just like Reek

I'm fine being wrong on him. Too "expensive"
He went at WR58 in my latest FPC draft.

He is their WR2 and he is going as a WR5. It's dumb.

I've done a few drafts the last few days and he's gone in rounds 4 and 5. Some FF people are promoting him BIG and I guess people are buying
 
Underdog he's going around WR50. Round 9. Start 3WR and they fly off the board yet he is still going that late. I've done over 120 drafts never seen him go before the 7th. *shrugs*

Where? He is still in the WR50s everywhere I've seen. If he suddenly climbed this much it should be a bigger news story. Anybody got other ADP data? 4th or 5th round seems like the right price.
 
Sneaky play in leagues that count return yardage. Picked him up off of WW last year in a keeper league and he was my WR2 ahead of Metcalf, Ridley and Kupp.

NOW, which one to keep this year ? :shrug:
 
One of the things I do is track % of change. My goal is usually to see who is locked in where. He's been 54-56 range since whenever I started so I've got him as a guarantee for what I do.
Now he's changed to WR20 on eight percent of drafts. It's significant since it was never fluctuating.
On X I see Andrew something is the catalyst.
A lot of people mention his big play ability and deep speed.
On whatever video came on YouTube after FBGs, some dude was discussing how he replaced Michael Thomas and touting Thomas's numbers from years ago. I turned it off muttering. Idk who it was. It auto played and I wasn't happy and shut it off.
It's definitely out there

I was listening to a podcast yesterday and someone had him ranked as their #2 overall player in this seasons Scott fishbowl scoring system due to how heavily they weight return yardage. Only CMC was ranked higher than shaheed.

That may be influencing other drafts that don't include return yardage .
 
Shaheed is too low because of where he was drafted. and maybe even the Current state of the Saints. If he was a 4th round pick or the Saints were a contender, we'd all be gushing.

I did acquire him in the league I was hoping to, so I'm ready to brag.

I need links. I posted a bunch above. Where? If you're right then yes it would be significant but I just posted above a bunch of stuff showing him as WR50+. Where are you getting your info? I'm sorry to press but it doesn't add up.

I get it now -- @barackdhouse , when I read the two posts above ... I thought you and Bri were agreeing that Shaheed was going way too high in redrafts. In fact, the two of you were disagreeing -- you were saying Shaheed was going way too low.
yes exactly. but I don't know what he is saying now because he is trying to say Rasheed is going WR20 and I'm saying not on this planet. Mmmmmmmmaybe in Scott Fish Bowl.
