I have never seen this kid play a down of football in my life. I also know that combine numbers mean absolutely nothing. BUT WOW..

Chris Baker, Hampton
Height: 6-2. Weight: 326.
Combine 40 Time: 5.02.
Benchx225: . Vertical: 35.5.

I don't care who you are it is impressive for a 326 lbs NT to run a 5.02 40 and have a vertical of 35.5. Thats just utterly ridiculous.

By no means am I saying draft this kid (never seen him play), but talk about flying up draft boards with a combine. He'll probably go in the 2-3rd round due to this.

Anybody have any opinions/analysis on his actual playing ability?

He had 34" arms which is good and his hands measured 10 inches. He only did 24 reps of 225 pounds so he needs to get stronger. Interesting that he played with Kendall Langford at Hampton

He also played with LB Justin Durant of Jacksonville and Jerome Mathis formerly of Houston.

If he's any good the Dolphins have got plenty tape on him from watching Langford last year!!

Baker only played one year at Hampton so he didn't play with Langford when he was there.

Baker did start seven games at Penn State in 2007 before being suspended and finally dismissed from the team for his part in a campus fight that he says was overblown.

When you come to me with Rey's confirmed issues then we will see. this kid has seen toruble everywhere he has went. Rey is the 3rd best LB in the country behind curry and cush. saying he is a bust is a joke

"Off the field his career started recklessly, with excessive drinking and partying that led to an October 2005 incident where he got into a fight at a Halloween party and was arrested for misdemeanor battery."

What a mature guy.
 
He also gained 25lbs and improved his 40 time in less than a year. I am very, wery suspicious.
