AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT
 Downfield Threat
 Elusiveness with Catch
 Speed
A big target who finds the soft spots in the defense, Baker is a solid football player with a nice game. A third receiver at the next level, he should flourish as a red-zone target and in third-down situations.


Biography:

Full-time starter the past two seasons, and an All-Conference selection as a senior after leading the team in receptions with career numbers of 60/920/10. Junior totals were 52/697/5.

Pos:

Strong possession wide out with consistent hands. Effectively gets off jams at the line of scrimmage, stays low exiting breaks and positions himself to make the reception. Gets vertical and high-points the pass, using his frame to shield away opponents. Out-muscles defenders for the ball and is a sturdy wide out who takes a pounding yet holds onto the throw. Nicely adjusts to the errant pass and consistently makes the reception away from his frame.

Neg:

Not quick releasing off the line. More of a loping runner and does not show a burst of speed.
