OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The way safety Eric Weddle has taken over a leadership role with the Baltimore Ravens reminds defensive coordinator Dean Pees of another longtime San Diego Chargers player who once joined his defense.
"Who I compare him to is Junior Seau," Pees said. "Junior Seau was a guy that was in New England and we had a bunch of leaders in [linebackers Mike] Vrabel and [Tedy] Bruschi. You get a guy who walks in the door and he's an automatic leader and is accepted. That's the same way Eric Weddle is.
