In recent weeks, Budda Baker has been a glaring omission from some pundits’ top NFL safety rankings.
There is no excuse as to how or why.
First of all, being named to 3 NFL All Pro teams and 5 Pro Bowls in 6 seasons places Budda Baker in elite company at the safety position.
Ask Budda’s NFC West opponents which defenders in the division are their biggest nemeses, and Budda Baker is always the first or one of the first mentioned. On every snap, the first thing that opponents want to know is “where is Budda”?
