Heat89 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 per rotoworld It would reportedly take a "miraculous recovery" for FS Ed Reed (shoulder) to be ready for Baltimore's season opener. Reed is a bit overrated, but the voice of Baltimore's secondary and a three time All Pro, so this helps Carson Palmer's matchup. Special teamer Jim Leonhard will start. Cincy's passing game should kick off with a bang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Always liked Leonhard, but I'm glad to say he's not talented enough to be on the Bills' roster these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lori Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Make that, per the Baltimore Sun: New Ravens jump right inWashington, Leonhard might be key to banged-up secondary By Ken Murray August 27, 2008 Jim Leonhard wanted the chance to play in Rex Ryan's defensive system. Fabian Washington wanted the chance to play anywhere other than Oakland. Together, they are starting over in the Ravens' secondary, perhaps just in the nick of time. In a daily battle against attrition this summer, Ryan, the Ravens' defensive coordinator, has yet to put his projected starting secondary on the field because of injuries. With the season opener just 11 days away, Leonhard and Washington could become key figures in any potential makeover. Leonhard spent three seasons with the Buffalo Bills as a solid special teams player and reserve safety who figured to fill the same role here. But when Pro Bowl safety Ed Reed showed up at camp with a shoulder injury, Leonhard's role kept growing. Unless Reed makes a miraculous recovery before Sept.7, it's likely Leonhard will start at free safety. I liked Leonhard's grittiness, and he made some plays while he was here ... but hard work only takes you so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsWatch Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Jim Leonhard is a good substitute on a strong defense but a weak one on a weak one so how well he does depends on rest of defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBilliever Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Apparently, according to Madden 09, he had a skin pigment change. To those who haven't seen, he's the #1 FS Free Agent in the game, and he's black. Good for him, though, I liked the guy, hope he does well.

Ralonzo Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Leonhard is probably a stopgap at safety, but is getting a long look at punt catching. Zbikowski and Nakamura have supposedly been good for the Ravens... If either of them gets cut, I'm sure they'd be an improvement over Scott et al.
