GM John Schneider wouldn't give a timeline for Baldwin's (knee/shoulder/groin) return to the field, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports. "That's a process we are still working through," Schneider said. "He is recovering from that right now and we will see where it goes. ... He's a tough guy, though."
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin has endured a trio of surgeries this offseason, the most recent one on a sports hernia on April 4. Prior to that procedure, coach Pete Carroll mentioned a recovery in the vicinity of 6-to-8 weeks, but it appears the Seahawks will exercise caution after all. With OTAs and mandatory minicamp on the docket in late May and early June, Baldwin may not get much on-field work at the Seahawks facility before training camp kicks off in late July. No matter, his health is of utmost important as newly-minted Russell Wilson's No. 1 option in the passing attack, so expect Baldwin to return when back to full health.
I think Metcalf is slated to take over Lockett's vertical heavy role on the outside (maybe not right away, but eventually), and Lockett is slated to take over Baldwin's possession-receiver role from the slot in 3-wide.

Trash. Theyll address it during the draft and Lockett, will end up being top 15

Lockett is one of my prime trade targets. But no one is giving him up.

@OdellsChubb Good call, obviously. xD
