As it turns out, the kid was framed ......... that's foul. He was a 1st round pick for the Giants. Almost like getting an additional 1st rounder for nothing but a rookie contract,

Former Giants cornerback DeAndre Baker is no longer facing armed robbery charges.
The Broward County (Florida) State’s Attorney’s office announced on Monday that four armed robbery charges against Baker have been dropped. The news was the second development of the day in the case.
The attorney for Baker’s accusers was arrested on Monday after allegedly making an attempt to extort Baker. Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports that William Dean initially demanded $1.5 million and worked his way down to requesting $800,000 in exchange for his clients changing their statements about witnessing Baker rob people in May.
Dean’s three clients reportedly recanted their statements last week. The fourth person accusing Baker of robbery is not represented by Dean and did not show up for an October hearing.
Why not...
He'll likely have multiple offers if he really didn't do anything wrong.
He could opt to sign with a team that has a winning record; although, he has a better chance of playing time here.
