In the midst of a defensive overhaul, the Baltimore Ravens have decided to focus on building their defense around the secondary.
During the past week, the Ravens said farewell to defensive standouts Terrell Suggs, C.J. Mosley and Eric Weddle, making the addition of free agent safety Earl Thomas a welcome one for Ravens fans.
Thomas has drawn comparisons to Hall of Fame safety Ed Reed throughout his career. The two are similar in stature -- Reed is 5-foot-11 and Thomas 5-foot-10 -- and also in the way they play the game, minus the unrivaled ability Reed always had in finding the ball.
