Don't demote him, make other guys do it. No, Dexter McCluster hasn't earned being ahead of Baldwin on the depth chart, nor has Wylie. You don't hate them as much because they weren't first round picks, but they've been awful as well. Breaston belongs ahead of Baldwin, to be sure. I still think he's ideally suited to be a slot receiver, but if we're going on merit only, Breaston should be the #2. Baldwin has as clean a claim to the #3 WR role as anyone on the roster and yeah, we should give him a crack at it. If he can't do it, he's gone. WRs are likely to be all they're going to be by their 3rd season; if he's still awful, then you hope you can replace him and you move along. And for the record, your list kinda makes my point. Gholston got 3 seasons. Andre Smith got 3 seasons. Maybin didn't, but man what a weird case he was (the incredible shrinking man) and Curry was traded in his 3rd season after he was clearly displaced by a player that was outperforming him. 3 seasons is not too much to ask, especially for a guy that, for everything he isn't, does show some ability go go up and get the ball and could be a decent deep threat.
