    A Friend of mine at work today asked me (as the resident JET Fan) if he should pick up CB as a player this week. I just wanted ya'll's opinions!

    Um, as on fantasy football? Probably should have put it in the fantasy football forum but whatever. It all depends on who you have in the league, who's his starting TE, whos available. He's an alright option in a large league though

    I just picked him up to replace Randy McMichael. I thought McMichael would have done well in St. Louis as a sleeper pick. Hopefully Baker can keep on making those TD's!

    Depending on who else is available, it's not a bad pickup especially if they continue to find him.

    baker isnt really the best fantasy option...i know he has 2 TD's, but hes used more as a blocker and he only has 4 grabs all year...he can definately do better

    There probably aren't a lot of quality TE's available on the FA wire at this point though.

    Yeah my TE has a bye this week so I picked up Baker. The Bills have a porous defense and Chad likes Baker in the red zone.

    Once you get past the 4-5 TE's there is not to much difference. This is a good week because buffalo sucks

    I'd pick him up if I had the extra room. He's worth the pick up, as far as skills goes, but the fact of the matter is, the Jets offense doesn't use him as much as we'd like him to, so in a way he may be taking a spot on your friends team that someone who gets used a good amount of the time week after week, can fill.

    I have a better sleeper TE than Chris Baker. Take this guy King on the Panthers. I don't know his first name. He's a TE - his first name doesn't matter. But he's money for fantasy.

    yeah, i picked him up to step in for Vernon Davis.

    I also like Donald Lee, he averages 4 grabs a game, and he?s a thread in the redzone.

    as for baker, i wouldn?t pick him up, if he doesn?t score a TD, you can?t expect more than 2-4 points out of him, and the chances that he scores are what? about 20%? But as a byweek filler, he might be alright
