Didn't like Harbaugh's choice of words. You "had" to release possibly the best ST player around?

Actually, you CHOSE to release possibly the best ST player around, to get that 4th rd pick. Which is logical, but it was a choice not a requirement. 

Curious if the Ravens lose an important game down the road because of a ST coverage mistake...

Harbaugh isn’t the GM thus from his perspective he did HAVE TO release Bethel as its DeCosta’s call.
 

Also Bethel for me is a smaller loss than Brynden Trawick was this season. Trawick seems to be a bigger impact player on special teams from what I’ve seen. Even if is close, id easily trade a special teams “ace” (who was on a unit that allowed a kickoff return TD) to get a 4th round pick.

In Ravens draft history of note for the 4th round: Justice Hill, Tavon Young, Zadarius Smith, Kyle Juszcyk, Dennis Pitta, LeRon McClain, Ovie Mughelli, Jarrett Johnson, Ed Hartwell, Edwin Mulitallo, Brandon Stokley. Would easily take them all over Bethel.
