Is anyone else starting to feel some concern regarding Baldwin this year? The Seahawks offense is crap. Is he good trade bait?

My current WRs are Antonio Brown, Baldwin vs Tenn, Eric Decker vs Sea, Tyrell Williams vs Chiefs, and I picked up Devin Funchess vs NO, and JJ Nelson vs Dallas. Standard scoring and I need to pick three to start this week. I'm considering putting Baldwin on the bench and going with Brown, Funchess, and Nelson. Thoughts?

Doug should come along.

If there is any week to do it this is it.

Tennessee Pass D giving up 14 receptions per game/175 yards receiving per game/almost 2 passing TDs per game/40 points a game to WRs in PPR.

If Baldwin craps the bed this week I'm worried.

O line needs to play better though.

FWIW, Baldwin is on Fabiano's Start list because the Titans give up the 5th most fantasy points to wide receivers.

Eta: He may have said 5th most passing yards, I had it on in the background.

Baldwin is a great buy low candidate.

SEA has 11 road TDs dating back to start of last year, worst in NFL

Baldwin has 1 top 32 PPR WR finish in his last 9 road games

You think TEN would be a good slump buster but then you realize they played the Saints at home last year and Baldwin went 4/51

Would you start Funchess over Nelson? Nelson has had two great games but unlikely to maintain that production. Funchess plays the saints and Greg Olsen is out.

I'd go with Nelson until Brown comes back.

Seattle (specifically Wilson) tends to be a slow starter.

I think the O-Line will get things together and Wilson will pick up steam as the season progresses, which bodes well for Baldwin.
