Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to 610 Radio's Nick Wright, who broke the story, there is "serious worry" Baldwin might miss more than preseason with the wrist injury suffered in the locker room scuffle with Thomas Jones. Wright is hearing 6-8 weeks, but he can't confirm that time frame. NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora is reporting the injury isn not expected to linger into the regular season. But La Canfora concedes that doctors are still looking into it. Whatever the case, it's hard to see Baldwin making a quick impact in 2011. Baldwin had discipline issues during his college days at Pittsburgh. He was labeled as a diva with a bad attitude heading into April’s draft, but the Chiefs’ deep need at receiver enticed them to select Baldwin with the 26th pick in the first round.
