David Reed can't hold on to the football, but he made some great plays as a special teams gunner last year. Has speed and can make tackles. So, we know he's not a kick returner based on 2011 (We'd be crazy to stick back out there in that role), and I don't feel comfortable with him as a WR- Why not use what we've learned about his solid tackling on special teams and give him a try at safety?

I am not saying make him a starting safety, of course, I am just saying if we put him on the roster for special teams, it makes more sense to me for him to be the 4th or 5th safety than the 4th or 5th WR, especially considering that we may lose Ed Reed (i.e. Take him from where we have depth to where we may need depth). Maybe we'll even be pleasantly surprised and find out he's a good enough safety to get some real playing time at the position. Worth experimenting in mini-camps and training camp and seeing what he's got. It could be a path for him to continue his NFL career.

Think there's any chance the Ravens might try it?
