Re: BREAKING: Saints sign S Jim Leonhard
Adding depth where needed with a capable veteran at low cost. Nice signing. Did anyone really think we were going to break the vault open in free agency with only pocket change to spend from the piggy bank? The off-season moves haven't been flashy, but they've been pretty solid for what they can afford.

A depth signing, he could make some plays on special teams

Re: BREAKING: Saints sign S Jim Leonhard
When Leonard was in his prime he was a bad ass. I like the pick up. Lets hope he stays healthy.

Re: BREAKING: Saints sign S Jim Leonhard
Another slow player added to "D". This is Kevin Kaesviharn all over again. Jim Leonard has 1 career interception. 57 tackles is the highest amount he's registered over a season. Not to mention he has a bum knee. I don't like it at all.

Either way, I don't like him. I'm willing to bet Roman Harper is faster. I rather we draft a safety then pick him up. It is what it is though. The deed is done. |

Re: BREAKING: Saints sign S Jim Leonhard
He's faster than Harper. He also has good hands unlike all other Saints DBs. If the Saints come up with a pass rush he could have a big impact. If they don't, it wont matter much who's at safety anyway.

Re: BREAKING: Saints sign S Jim Leonhard
I thought he had signed with another team last week maybe I wrong he's a good player. I thing the Saints have something up there sleeves but I really don't think Harper has and trade value.
