Three WR in the first four rounds? I shudder at what your RB corps looks like...

I picked 12/12 in half PPR this year. Went RB/RB with Fournette and Gordon followed by Baldwin and Amari. Will Baldwin be a top ten WR? Maybe. Will he be outside of the top 20? Almost certainly not.

I can live with that.

There will be some tough battles if he isn’t 100%

Chris Harris

Upgraded Rams secondary x2 who held him to 4/37 and 1/6 last season. Peters, Talib

Darius Slay - top 3 CB when shadowing

Casey heyward - another shadow guy

Xavier Rhodes - top shadow

PP7 x2 - only deployed as shadow in certain cases under old regime, was shutdown when he did it. Not sure what new guys will do

Richard Sherman x2 - don’t know what he will bring down the line coming off an ACL himself


6 of those matchups will at least be tough sledding if not at full health

Looks like he only really only truly shadowed Julio but regardless he was elite in man coverage all year

I have him and Hogan also. I'm higher on Hogan this week because of the matchups but my worry about Baldwin isn't right now.

I mean, who the hell are they going to throw it to? Look at Seattle's depth chart. No doubt he's going to get the majority of targets.

I'm more worried about him as the season progresses. I might try to trade him high if he starts the first half of the season strong.

Added Tyler Lockett off waivers, I think he breaks out this year with Baldwin’s injury and Brandon Marshall’s age and ineffectiveness.

Baldwin will still get his though I’m sure. Don’t love him as a WR1 or even WR2 though.

Has to be faded this week

54% of his snaps were in the slot last year, he’ll avoid those guys on a number of snaps. It won’t always be pretty, but he’ll be fine

You like Cory Davis or Marquise Goodwin over Baldwin?
