WR Jonathan Baldwin, Pitt


Jonathan Baldwin, WR, Chiefs, 1st round. Pitt.: Great size, which he uses to great advantage in red zone. Excellent verticals and explosiveness. Very good speed for the size. Good hands. Average upper-body strength. Fair body control. Runs a little out of control. Needs to be quicker out of breaks. Misjudged ball going up in bowl game and at Combine, too. Suspect concentration. Not a big part of 2010 bowl game. Has never been a super-productive receiver, though that may be because of Pitt’s conservative philosophy. Often compared physically to Larry Fitzgerald. Junior who has declared for 2011 draft. Reportedly had excellent pro day. Will likely be starter opposite Bowe right away, though he could use some time to learn the more complicated pro game. Teams’ running emphasis will limit his potential, but he may be a quality fantasy WR3 eventually.
