MONARAY BALDWIN NEWS

Finds end zone twice in win Baldwin accrued seven receptions (on eight targets) for 119 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 45-17 win versus Kansas.

Impact Baldwin had a significant drop-off over the previous few games, but bounced back in big way during the last regular season game of his college career. While every Baylor receiver thrived with Sawyer Robertson under center, he would often spread the wealth around, which would result in lower fantasy value for all of them. That didn't happen against Houston, as Baldwin shared the glory with Josh Cameron in the win. Baldwin's 5-9 frame makes him questionable as an NFL prospect, but it's a logical next step as his college career ends after the eventual bowl game.

Impact Baldwin was neutralized by Houston with just 16 yards, his lowest output since not recording a catch in Week 3.

Big game in losing effort Baldwin logged six receptions (on 11 targets) for 117 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 30-18 loss versus Iowa State.

Impact Baldwin was able to break off a 69-yard touchdown which made for a productive fantasy outing. Baldwin has been a frequent target with QB Blake Shapen back in the starting line-up as the receiver has double-digit targets in back-to-back games.

Huge performance against Cowboys Baldwin pulled down seven catches for 174 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's 36-25 loss to Oklahoma State.

Impact Baldwin showed off his elite speed on a 70-yard touchdown grab against the Cowboys. The sophomore has a turbo gear and is clearly Baylor's top receiver. He should be rostered in all formats as it looks like Baylor's defense is not going to be a good as it has been in the past. This means that Blake Shapen is going to need to find Baldwin early and often when competing with other conference foes. Baylor is off next week before playing at West Virginia on Oct. 13.
