I prefer Alshon to Baldwin, but it's possible neither is more than a flex for you with your WRs. Njoku tho I think is a better prospect at this point than is Parker.

I prefer Njoku to Parker.

Alshon and Baldwin are basically a wash - but I do think Alshon will be a viable WR for longer than Baldwin. Could see Baldy having 2 good seasons left, whereas Alshon should be able to utilize his size on that high powered offense for around 3-4 more seasons.

It's pretty much a pick'em but I'd prob take the Baldwin/Njoku side to get a potential stud at TE in the pipeline - esp since it's a TE premium league.

I agree. I think a lot of people talk about how underrated Baldwin is, which I agree with, but Alshon might be even more underrated than him. With that said, the two aren't that far apart in value, but I would much rather take my chances with Njoku than Parker.

I've always seen Parker as a bust and TE premium makes Njoku a tasty choice.

Bald is sexy, but Baldwin is not. That's why you're not excited.

Still, I'd prefer Baldwin to Alshon straight-up, let alone getting Njoku over Parker.

Last year, Baldwin had more catches and yards and one fewer TD than Jeffery.

Over the past three years, Baldwin's has had no fewer than 75 catches, 991 yards, and 8 TDs. With the exception of his 9 TDs last year, Jeffery hasn't hit any of those numbers since 2014.

Yes, Jeffery has missed quite a few games with injuries. Fair enough. That being said, is his ceiling THAT much higher than Baldwin's? His floor -- given his injury history -- is certainly faaaar lower.

Of course, Jeffery is younger than Baldwin, and that has to account for something, right? Yeah, but only 18 months -- Baldwin is 29 now and Jeffery is 28.

I'm not selling the same ceiling and a higher floor for 18 months.

So, while not sexy, I'll take Baldwin straight-up over Alshon and will gladly add Njoku at the cost of Parker. Double win, IMO.

I think I'll take Baldwin side. He and Wilson might be the only 2 playmakers on the field for Seattle this year. I do think this trade is pretty even though.... really just a matter of preference.
