veteran CSU interior anchor with proven starting experience
B.J. Baker is a veteran Charleston Southern offensive lineman whose value comes from experience, stability, and interior toughness rather than flashy box-score stats. In 2008 he was a second-team all-conference pick and started every game for CSU, and later previews described him as one of the Buccaneers’ key returning linemen, which is usually shorthand for “the guy you trust when the playbook gets muddy.”[3][10] For a team needing a dependable guard who can handle physical fronts and keep the run game on schedule, Baker reads as a solid fit; the main question is simply whether you want a battle-tested veteran more than a developmental upside swing.[1][3][12]
