Georgia's Baker says he's the top CB in NFL draft

ATHENS, Ga. -- Deandre Baker proclaimed himself to be the best cornerback in the NFL draft after using Georgia's pro day to improve his time in the 40-yard dash.

Baker posted two unofficial times of 4.46 seconds in the 40 on Wednesday. He was timed at 4.52 seconds in last month's NFL combine in Indianapolis.

Most projections have Baker being selected in the first round in the NFL draft on April 25. Baker, who won the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back, wants to be the first cornerback taken in the draft.
