Baker is a zone-heavy corner who excels at off-man techniques and reading quarterbacks, fitting perfectly into schemes prioritizing vision and reaction over pure speed.
Year 1 rotational depth with potential to develop into a starting zone/off-man corner by Year 2.
Man-heavy schemes that demand elite burst and recovery speed in press coverage; specific value collapses here.
A strong fit for teams running Cover-3 or Cover-2, where his instincts and ball skills can be maximized despite average top-end speed.
Selected #30 overall in Round 1 of the 2019 NFL Draft by New York Giants out of Georgia.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
