Falcons re-signed LT Sam Baker to a six-year, $41.5 million contract with $18.25 million guaranteed.
Baker was one of the better left tackles left on a right tackle-heavy market, and Atlanta values him more than most teams do. Turning 28 in May, Baker is coming off his best season. He started all 16 games for just the second time in his five-year career, holding up well as Matt Ryan's blindside protector. Baker came up short of Will Beatty and Jermon Bushrod ($7 million-plus annually).

The National Football Post suggests teams around the league believe free agent Sam Baker is more of a guard than tackle.
One personnel man thinks Baker's best fit is in a zone-blocking scheme due to his limited length, which "affects him as a pass protector" and he "does not anchor well." Baker, 28 in May, had easily his best season in 2012, but he has notoriously struggled since being a first-round pick in 2008. He also has chronic back problems. We're not expecting a hot market for his services.

The Miami Herald mentions free agent LT Sam Baker as an option for the Dolphins.
Baker is injury-prone and struggles in run-blocking, but the Herald suggests him as a short-term answer to replace Jake Long. The Dolphins are hoping to keep second-round pick Jonathan Martin at right tackle.

Miami Herald
Late in the 2012 season, one NFL personnel man described free agent LT Sam Baker as a "below-average" starter.
The personnel man called Baker a stopgap rather than long-term solution. Baker, 28 in May, ranks relatively low on a strong offensive tackle market, coming in 10th in Rotoworld's 2013 free-agent OT ratings. The Falcons could potentially let Baker test the market and re-sign him affordably if interest isn't great.
