02Scheme fit
Ideal system

A more pass-heavy attack emphasizes disciplined route running and strong hands.

X-receiverBoundary ZSlot flex
Best role

Year 1 contributor on the outside, with the ceiling to develop into a premier X-receiver dominating with size and speed threats.

Wrong fit

A West Coast timing offense that demands nuanced route precision from day one, rather than allowing him to develop his technique.

Baldwin has the raw tools to excel in a vertical passing game, where his size and athleticism can be maximized.

04The evaluation

Selected #26 overall in Round 1 of the 2011 NFL Draft by Kansas City Chiefs out of Pittsburgh.
