Owner Jim Irsay recently tweeted that the Colts are pursuing a wide receiver, and the Indianapolis Star speculates it may be Doug Baldwin.

The Indy Star is just connecting dots, but they do connect. Baldwin was pushed down Seattle's depth chart following Percy Harvin's acquisition, and Baldwin played with Colts quarterback Andrew Luck and under new OC Pep Hamilton at Stanford. We suspect Seattle could net a fifth- or sixth-round pick for Baldwin.

Doug Baldwin caught just two passes for 19 yards in the Seahawks' Week 17 win over the Rams.

Baldwin caught both passes thrown in his direction. Russell Wilson only threw the ball 19 times on Sunday, so there wasn't a whole lot to go around. Baldwin, in his second year out of Stanford, had a big time drop in production in his sophomore season. After posting a 51/788/4 line in 2011, he ended the 2012 regular season with 29 catches for 366 yards and three touchdowns. We'll see Baldwin working the slot next weekend in the playoffs when the No. 5 seed Seahawks travel tow Washington or Dallas.

Doug Baldwin caught four passes for 53 yards and two touchdowns in Seattle's Week 16 win over the 49ers.

On a night where the 49ers took away the deep ball, Russell Wilson's slot man drew a team-high six targets. He found the end zone for scores of four and six yards. The yards were Baldwin's most since Week 6, while the four-catch night was only his second of the season. Baldwin remains an intriguing young prospect, but won't enter 2013 on the WR3 radar.

Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin caught three passes for 42 yards in Seattle's Week 10 win over the Jets.

As a situational slot receiver, Baldwin doesn't see enough targets for fantasy usage. But he adds dynamic ability to Seattle's offense and could be more of a factor if the Seahawks let Russell Wilson throw the ball more than 20-25 times a game. Keep Baldwin in mind as a late-season sleeper if the Seahawks do loosen up the offense a bit. He could be a solid WR4/5.

Doug Baldwin (ankle) is officially probable for Week 9.

Baldwin was limited in Wednesday's practice, but got in two full sessions to end the week. It's an earlier than expected return for Seattle's slot receiver, as he was originally labeled a "long shot" for Week 9. It's good news for rookie quarterback Russell Wilson, but with just 11 catches in six games, Baldwin is off the PPR-league radar.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll confirmed Friday that he anticipates Doug Baldwin (ankle) playing in Week 9 against the Vikings.

Baldwin isn't a standalone fantasy option, but he has some playmaking ability. His return is good news for two-quarterback leaguers starting Russell Wilson.

Doug Baldwin (ankle) was upgraded to full participation in Thursday's practice.

Coach Pete Carroll considered Baldwin a "long shot" at the outset of Week 9, but it now appears that he's on track to play against the Vikings. He's not a fantasy option at 100 percent, much less when playing through an ankle sprain.
