DeAndre Baker has another rough outing

DeAndre Baker appears to be on information overload as he's thrust into the starting cornerback role.

DeAndre Baker, the third of the Giants three first-round draft picks, has had a tough time of it in the NFL.

Baker was burned last week against the Cowboys and things didn't get much better for him this week against the Bills.

I haven't spoken to Deandre Baker but I assure you his head is spinning and overloaded with information.. how do I know? He did something that defies the basic instincts of playing CB Exhibit A.. Beasley 51yd completion, Baker turned and followed the wr up the seam

The BASIC INSTINCT of a CB is to take the outside wr.. never have i seen a cb turn away from a go route to chase a seam.. #informationoverload
