Thursday Round-Up: ESPN Picks The Best Broadcast Prospect For Each Team

ESPN reporters discussed which player on each roster across the league would be the best sports broadcaster.

Good morning, 12s. 

Here's a look at what's "out there" for today — Thursday, July 6 — about your Seattle Seahawks: 

ESPN Picks The Best Broadcast Prospect For Each Team

The transitions former NFL quarterbacks Tony Romo and Jay Cutler made from the field to the broadcast booth this offseason inspired ESPN.com to ponder which player on each roster across the league would be the best sports broadcaster. Reporters from ESPN's NFL Nation picked one player and considered that player's analysis, personality and skills of critique.

For the Seahawks, reporter Sheil Kapadia selected wide receiver Doug Baldwin, whose thoughtfulness edged him over teammates Richard Sherman and Michael Bennett: 

There are plenty of options on the Seahawks' roster. Richard Sherman has said he'd be interested in doing some media after his playing days are over. And Michael Bennett is entertaining every time he stands behind a microphone. But Baldwin would be the best bet. He knows the offensive side of the ball well and has proved to be a master at deciphering defensive coverages. Baldwin speaks honestly, isn't afraid to be controversial and would take a broadcasting job seriously. He could have a nice on-air career after his playing days are over if he wants to go that route.
