They know a thing or two about linebacking up in the Steel City. Probably couldnt have landed in a better place.

I'm pretty sure that organization saw something they liked, 3rd down specialist or a bargain price for a wedge hammer on special teams... I hope he makes it.

The Steelers like him enough after four years of SEC game tape and tryouts, but keakdasneak isn't so sure...

I like the guy a lot. I hope he makes it. But there may be places that give him a better shot of making it. That is a reasonable opinion and statement

maybe so, but the Steelers typically don't bring in guys that are marginal fits

Good for Baker! Congrats to him! He is not a vocal guy but always trying to be a leader after Kelvin Sheppard departed.
