New York Giants: DeAndre Baker Has Potential To Be A Shutdown Cornerback

The New York Giants completely rebuilt their defense in the 2019 offseason. Their secondary received a complete retooling in the 2019 NFL Draft. The Giants selected three cornerbacks in this year’s draft (four if you include Sam Beal), including one talented corner in the 1st-round.

New York traded up into the back end of the draft to select the draft class’s first cornerback. The Giants traded up with the Seattle Seahawks to acquire the 30th overall pick and draft Georgia cornerback DeAndre Baker.

DeAndre Baker is a talented defensive back with advanced playmaking abilities.
