PHOENIX -- Doug Baldwin is indeed heading toward another surgery, which means the Seattle Seahawks have one more reason to make sure they’re covered at wide receiver.
It doesn’t top pass-rushing defensive end on their list of needs, but it should be up there among Seattle’s priorities as the NFL draft draws near.
After his interview with reporters at the NFL annual meetings in Phoenix last week, head coach Pete Carroll told KIRO-AM 710 ESPN Seattle that Baldwin's procedure carries a recovery time of six to eight weeks. That alone wouldn’t threaten Baldwin’s availability for training camp let alone the start of the season.
