The 2019 free agent safety market got a little bit stronger on Tuesday when Eric Weddle was released by the Baltimore Ravens. Weddle, 34, has long been one of the stronger starters at the safety position and has started all but three games since the 2010 season. Though he is a little long in the tooth, Weddle won’t be on the market for long.
Weddle is a great coverage player and has always had ballhawk abilities. While he didn’t notch any interceptions last year, he had 10 over the span of his first two seasons with the Ravens and has been key in creating a quality unit there in Baltimore.
