Because Baker is a potential bust/wash out who might not even be able to make the team and Keyes is a late round pick that needs more time to get integrated, if he ever does.
This is one of the better CB classes in a long time and it's a VERY expensive position to maintain after initial rookie contracts expire.
There's a lot more to the draft than just immediate need, although with Ward being a free agent after next year and Fenton and Sneed being actual starting material, they absolutely have a need.
