[Bambi]

Per Petro right now. Very sketchy info at this time

Dude is just plain bad. Painfully bad.

Wait until you see how bad AJ Jenkins is. I think you made the difficult task of finding somebody worse.

That sounds vaguely familiar...

and we 9er fans thought Rashun Woods was as bad as it got

So I guess we each got the same player with a change of scenery. Haha.

As for the trade: welp, he had that one great TD against San Diego a few years ago. The only positive thing I can remember from him after all this time..

I forget the game because it was a forgettable season, but he also had that catch where he skied over two defenders to make the grab on like, 4th and 3 on a last chance drive.

Pretty sure that was one of our two wins last year.

Woods out performed Jenkins.

AJ Jenkins might be a little worse but it's close.

Weird, isn't it?

But he can't get any separation whatsoever off the line and can't get out of his breaks against any semblance of press coverage despite his prodigious physical size, strength and athleticism.

He's the Vernon Gholston of receivers.

It's all there in spades from a physical perspective. The dude just can't play football.

that's why he got traded

he has the potential to be andre johnson-ish and we just gave him away for a guy you say sucks

Just have your corners give Baldwin a good bump off the LOS and a little push with each cut and he just shrivels up in a corner and cries.

too bad really

Its terribly disappointing because he is a guy who is wasting his physical talent.

He has all the physical talent, and he has saw dust, for BRAINS.

Its the worst kind of waste.

He's only made a few big plays ever?

that's the funny thing. Anquan boldin is one of the slowest receivers in football. But, he can catch anything, and beat any kind of pressure, and make every catch in the game.

Yet Baldwin, with really a level lower than Calvin Johnson athletic ability, is just a walking dumpster.....

You are pretty much describing AJ Jenkins style of play too believe it or not.

Now hold on there Dane, this is 'Merica. Every citizen is completely innocent, and sheltered from internet bashings until proven guilty in a court of law by a jury of their peers. Let's not overreact here.

It's great that both teams get to trade a bust for a guy who is a former first-round draft pick. Great p.r. move.
