Cardinals 'stud' projected to land with Bills, Bengals or Jaguars in blockbuster trade
The Arizona Cardinals may have to part with one of their beloved players, one NFL analyst says.
Arizona Cardinals star safety Budda Baker is being projected as a potential trade target, according to a feature by Jordan Dajani of CBS Sports. Baker, who was drafted by the Cardinals 36th overall in 2017, has been an absolute standout for the team since his selection. In his Pro Bowl rookie season, he became a fixture in the league's top 8 and has maintained that level of excellence since, racking up over 1,000 tackles before the age of 30—joining a select group of elite defenders like Bobby Wagner, Roquan Smith, Luke Kuechly, Lavonte David, Ray Lewis, and Fred Warner.
Dajani describes Baker as a "stud" on the field, particularly highlighted by his performance against the Los Angeles Rams, where he recorded six tackles, a sack, two tackles for loss, and a pass defensed, effectively thwarting a touchdown and stopping key running backs. While Cardinals fans would undoubtedly be saddened by the prospect of losing Baker, Dajani believes that the Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals, and Jacksonville Jaguars would be ideal destinations for the safety, should a blockbuster trade occur before the November deadline.
