The Tampa Bay Buccaneers pass defense has become a travesty. Quarterbacks are carving it up at will.

It’s hard to win games in the NFL like this, no matter how well your offense plays. That why for the second time in four drafts they decide to take a cornerback in the 1st round. Deandre Baker is a pesky little guy.

He may be 5’11 but he plays like he’s 6’4. Receivers can almost never shake him off and if the quarterback throws aren’t perfect in his direction, he has the instinct and ball skills to jump the route for an interception.
