a proven, turnover-making linebacker with SEC-level pedigree
Baker’s calling card is production and disruption: in his listed high school career he posted 129 tackles, 4 forced fumbles, 6 fumble recoveries and an interception, and he was rated the 35th-best linebacker nationally by Scout.com. That profile points to a defender who reads quickly, finishes plays, and can swing momentum with takeaways, which is exactly the kind of trait coaches value beyond raw tackle totals. For a team, he looks like a fit if you want an active, physical linebacker with a history of impact plays and a reputation strong enough to project real upside.
