Indianapolis Colts' safety Julian Blackmon has expressed dissatisfaction with the current safety market, comparing it unfavorably to the running back market from the previous year. Blackmon, who believes his value exceeds a "more than a one-year deal", has recently re-signed with the Colts, making them the first NFL team this offseason to have no remaining unrestricted free agents. The team had 13 such free agents on March 13 and has successfully re-signed nine, including Blackmon. His return is crucial for the Colts, as they heavily rely on him to replicate his impressive performance from the last season in their secondary.
