With a full offseason to work with this offense and gel with Sam Darnold, what's a reasonable projection for his target rate? Somewhere around 20 percent?... Shaheed is a great deep threat, and Sam Darnold has become one of the better deep passers in the league the last couple seasons. I see the potential for a big-time connection here, especially relative to ADP.

Shaheed's full offseason with Darnold and deep-passing connection offers upside over ADP.

Seahawks WR acquired at trade deadline last season; Yahoo ADP 128.4, ESPN ADP 159.9. Despite zero double-digit fantasy games as a Seahawk in 0.5 PPR, the source argues his TPRR dropped from 22.8 with New Orleans to 14.5 in nine regular-season games due to mid-season integration challenges. With a full offseason to gel with Sam Darnold, a reasonable 20 percent target projection is plausible. While Jaxon Smith-Njigba will remain focal point, repeating his 36 percent target share will be difficult, creating opportunity for Shaheed. Seattle is oddsmakers' No. 8 highest-scoring team; Darnold has 46.3 percent completion rate on deep passes (20+ air yards) since 2023, best in the league. Source notes Shaheed is a great deep threat and expects significant increased usage, positioning him as better in best ball but potentially more featured overall.
