Ravens, Bengals Counting On 2nd-Year Safeties To Step Up After Losing Starters

Almost everybody in the AFC North has already been impacted by free agency—pending deals becoming official as early as today. The Pittsburgh Steelers, for example, are expected to lose Cameron Sutton at cornerback, but reportedly will replace him with Patrick Peterson.

Both the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals have lost notable free agents as well. The Ravens lost starting guard Ben Powers. The Bengals lost both of their starting safeties. Likewise, the Ravens parted ways, via trade, with starting safety Chuck Clark for the purpose of creating cap relief.

Now both the Ravens and Bengals must turn to their first-round draft picks from a year ago.
