Seahawks report card: Doug Baldwin

Doug Baldwin has come a long way since going undrafted in the 2011 NFL Draft, and it was amazing to watch him showcase his talents this season. Baldwin finished the year with 78 receptions, 1,069 yards and 14 touchdowns and was unstoppable during the final stretch of the season. He truly established himself as one of the elite wide receivers in the NFL, and his connection with Russell Wilson was fun to watch.

Baldwin was 21st in the NFL in receiving yards, but that doesn’t tell the entire story of his successful season. In what had been a run-first offense until Marshawn Lynch suffered an abdominal injury, Baldwin wasn’t getting the ball nearly as much as other top wide receivers in the league.
