5. Shareece Wright

This one is a toss up for me. Wright is making $5.3 million this season and for his play, he is not worth that much. But on the other hand, the Ravens are extremely thin that the corner-back position. He had is moments where he has made plays, but there were too many times when he got beat or committed penalties.

Next: Did The Baltimore Ravens Actually Overachieve In 2016?

Whether Wright is cut or not, the Ozzie Newsome and the front office are going to address the position. It hurt the defense down the stretch and arguably was the main reason that kept them from making the playoffs. There is a good chance the Ravens will address the corner-back need in free agency and in the draft. The Ravens could take the cap space from cutting Wright and invest it into different corner-back. There are players like Malcom Butler, Logan Ryan, Morris Caliborne, and Prince Amukamara who will be on the market.
