this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Yahoo Sports and Scout.com are saying that OLB Scott Fujita is coming for a visit. I think he's a step up and would be a welcome addition to the team. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/teams/nor...

I've heard that name. I hear he is pretty solid. Lets see....any Saints activity is a step in the right direction.

Fujita....solid, not spectacular or dominant. I don't know how he would fare as the leader of an LB corps. Definitely an upgrade though.

RE: Scott Fujita has scheduled visit
Haha yes, definitely an upgrade. My family lives in Dallas so I got to see a couple of Cowboys games this year, and Fujita was not spectacular but very solid. Here's a scouting report on him:

quite a few here were banging the drum for him before last season. very few free agent LB signings could not be an upgrade. one real NFL LB addition has been a MUST for too many years now.

A couple things I forgot to mention. He is graded as the 7th best LB FA this year. Also, you can't overlook the connection that Fujita and Payton/Gibbs might have. All were with the Cowboys last year and Fujita might feel comfortable with Payton leading the way and Gibbs as his defensive coordinator.

he got his start in K.C., where he started a few years, before signing with Dallas last year. The Cowboys are interested in bringing him back.
