I love my Seahwaks brethren on here and I mean no disrespect, but let's be honest, Doug Baldwin is not a hall of famer and does not warrant a tribute card. He became a great WR in Seattle but saying he is "2nd best behind Largent" may be true, but it's not really that close to me. Largent played in an NFL that wasn't near as wide open and didn;t have Russell Wilson throwing him the football.
Largent 819 catches/13089 yards/100 TD in 200 games
Baldwin 493 catches/6563 yards/49 TD in 123 games
Largent is one of the best to ever lace them up. I could see if you wanted to recognize Baldwin as one of the best Seahawks, but not a career tribute. It's not personal, it's just the facts. We don't need a career tribute card every time someone gets cut or retires. These should be reserved for future HOF.
I mean let's take a WR we once shared in common: Golden Tate. He was one of my favorite Lions, but I wouldn't even consider him getting a tribute and his numbers are on par if not better in a few areas than Baldwin in just 14 more games:
