Can we let the judicial process take its course before we cut him
Every tweet that comes out really makes me question if he is a sane human being. This is almost Aaron Hernandez dumb. If the person he instructed to shoot would've actually done so and killed the person people would be talking about Hernandez. IDIOTS!
Cutting baker doesnt help them cap wise unless they can get out of his guaranteed money. Hes a first round pick.
If the charges are stick and he pleads guilty or is found guilty, it triggers the forfeiture clause that is standard in every player's contract. There is a bit of a process and a potential grievance that can be filed, but the Player's Association likely won't make an effort to represent Baker's interests.
Last season. He sorta played better down the stretch but wasn’t exactly living up to first round billing. If this is true, release him and next man up.
Dre Kirkpatrick injury-prone
Trumaine Johnson - was a huge FA bust for the Jets and couldn't stay healthy for a good part of his time there
Aqib Talib - yeah right
Eli Apple - bwahahahahaha
Brandon Carr - he knows Garrett...
All in all, Kirkpatrick or Johnson may be a decent signing to compete with Beal and Ballentine for the outside CB spot, but I'd be rooting REALLY hard for Beal. At least we know Beal can play a bit. He was up-and-down last season, but it was really his first game-action. Ballentine was awful throughout (albeit playing the slot).
creaming in their Superman tighty-whities right now
While I’m not ready to shit on Dave for this yet, I need to go back and re-read Sy’s write up on Baker. I want to see if there were any character flags. If there were, then maybe we can question Dave’s decision to trade back into round 1 for him.

Gettelman drafted a guy who’s background checked out (I would think). Player makes a stupid decision a year later and that’s on him and no one else.
I dont expect many on this board to grasp that, but that’s the reality.
It was reported in more than one place that Baker fell in the draft due to character concerns. So especially for a team that preaches the “character” garbage, this is especially on them.
To think he was a first round pick that Gettleman traded UP for. The reason this franchise sucks? First round picks that yield zero return.

Baker
Can’t keep missing these picks. I’d imagine Baker will be cut.
Every team whiffs on 1st rounders. Want to feel bad about first round picks? Look at Seattle over the last handful of years.
LJ Collier, Germain Ifedi, a backup RB Rashad Penny, trading back into round 2 to take Malik McDowell who never played a snap, trading first rounders for a declining Jimmy Graham and Percy Harvin- two guys who produced very little. They even topped it off by taking a LB in round 1 this year that many had as a round 3 prospect.

No it didn’t. See link above. He gambled.
Your link posts no information whatsoever. Your grasping.
Unless you can prove to me that Baker was previously violent or this fucking stupid (like a Joe Mixon) then this is one of those scenarios that really sucks and it’s 100% on the player.
The Giants are very deep in the secondary, so they'll be ready to plug and play.
(But without guns.)
Really? Who’s their best player, Peppers? Bradberry? Because other than those two all I see is rookies or guys who didn’t cover themselves in glory as rookies,

There were off the field concerns. I remember reading that at the time.
Not if you're Charles Barkley
Hey, if you're not going to social distance, might as well wear a mask :D
Fucking blind asswipe!
Strike three. Leonard Williams deal was strike 2
Beal is a stick with two bum shoulders.
Ballentine was a late round pick for a reason,as far as I can see.
Lance Zierlein projected Love for round 2.
He should get a very hard look for the outside CB spot. Love is all we need - ( New Window )
He will. Judge even mentioned earlier that Love will get a shot at outside corner.
Still butt hurt huh??
He’s slit corner. Opportunity for Beal and Ballentine.
Also doesn’t seem like Judge would want any part of this guy if this is true. Spending quality offseason time robbing people at gunpoint instead of just hanging out normally......fucking Christ
and I would have no issue getting rid of him tonight
but please lets find out a few facts first
No. But called strike on a Gettleman. Actually with the Beal pick, this might be strike four.
Rough indeed.
Wouldn’t have made a difference, he went #3
He will. Judge even mentioned earlier that Love will get a shot at outside corner.
Thanks, good to know.

Okudah wouldn't have been a waste after all. Too many idiots in the NFL to declare a bad roster as set at a position.

After so many said he wasn't a top 5 pick. Point is still valid.

IIRC there were flags on Baker.

of mistaken identity.
Like, you know, Gettleman thought he was drafting a CB, but he got a nut job instead.

He's gone. He is not a Joe Judge-type of player.
