Bucs are releasing DT Chris Baker, source says. Was due $4.875m in 2018, $3m of which would’ve been fully guaranteed the fifth day of the league year.


Quote:
Doug Martin was due $6.75m in 2018 so it was expected he’d either take a pay cut or get released. Getting released this early in the game suggests there wasn’t much of a negotiation.


Wasn’t Chris Baker just signed last year along with DeSean Jackson?
Doug Martin vs, David Wilson

Martin appeared to be the target of the Giants back in the 2012 draft, when the Bucs jumped up and grabbed him.

Still wonder about what kind of player Wilson would have been, had he not had the neck injury. Super athletic, made some huge and memorable plays as a rookie, most definitely the HR hitter that the Giants might have been able to pair with Odell to open the offense even more.

Wilson was always the target. There was some as what info to that effect on BBI.
