The 2025 NFL offseason has kicked off with a flurry of activity as several prominent players, such as Davante Adams, Tyler Lockett, and Joey Bosa, enter the free agent market. Trade talks are heating up, with players like DK Metcalf drawing interest. Among the underrated positions this offseason is safety. Last year, teams such as the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles effectively utilized free-agent safeties like Xavier McKinney and C.J. Gardner-Johnson to enhance their defenses. This year’s crop includes notable names like Jevon Holland, Tre'von Moehrig, and Justin Reid, each of whom has the potential to make an impact on their new teams.

Holland, for instance, is being compared to McKinney due to his game-changing potential, while Reid is seen as a reliable option for contenders. The projected contract values for these safeties range from $8 million to $20 million, indicating a robust market for the position. Teams are likely to pursue these players aggressively, especially those looking to bolster their defenses as they prepare for the upcoming season.
