Top free agent safeties

Teams look at safeties in a few ways. Is the player a true deep-middle free safety? Is he a "box" player capable of being strong in run support? Or, is he best in a Cover-2 scheme?

Ranking safeties will be different for every team based on scheme. The safeties will not demand the money that the corners will make, but there is a need around the league for safeties with matchup skills to defend all the personnel groups and formation issues.
