Antonio Baker is a versatile, "tweener" type DB who'll likely be a late-round guy. He's got 17.5 tackles, 1 INT, 1 FF so far this year.
I don't think Smith got the interception, but he did get a sack later on -- and was raved about as a great NFL talent with the way he used a perfect swim move to get that sack.

thanks for the info about baker. i knew i remember someone on here talking about him as an nfl prospect. i know one of their dlineman had an interception, might not have been smith but they were talking about him when it happened. someone tipped the ball on a slant.

I remember briefly discussing him last year in their bowl game as a potential riser if he played well this season. He's not a flashy player, just a solid contributor. You don't see him give up many big plays, though.
I really like the Mick Williams kid from Pitt, but we'd never draft him -- he's strictly a 4-3 guy, but I think he'd do a great job with any 4-3 team that wanted to develop him.
