If they sign Leon it would be with the intent to use him opening day. It isn't like he needs practice, and as a consummate professional he must still be in shape. If he isn't in shape then he gets no deal.
In other words, it makes no sense to sign Hall now, especially as a response to our first round pick going down. It makes all the sense in the world to sign camp fodder to make sure another veteran or more important Db doesn't get hurt as well.
Really.....I can't believe you actually asked this question. The teams actions make perfect sense to me.
The funny thing about your post is the lack of reading comprehension you demonstrated in attacking my question. Considering I never questioned the teams actions, it makes one believe you were a tad off base in your response.
I don't fault the organization one bit for not running out and signing him, rather, I wonder where Leon's head is when it comes to his contract. You and I know damn well that Leon wants to be signed sooner rather than later, to not only have a sense of comfort knowing he has his chance but also to give himself an opportunity to prove himself worthy of a contract. If not, he wouldn't be sniffing around other teams while the bengals are making it public they are very much interested. Also, I think it is no coincidence that he seemingly started receiving calls after WJIII went down. Teams are not stupid and will pluck him out from under us if we aren't careful and You better believe he wants it now, but my main question is what in the world does he want?
