Bills castoff Leonhard thriving with Ravens
The Ravens signed Leonhard in April. He became their starting strong safety when Dawan Landry suffered a season-ending spinal injury in Week 2.
Leonhard's 85 tackles ranked fourth on one of the NFL's most feared defenses. He also had a sack and an interception, but he has gone off in the postseason.
Leonhard couldn't have been expected to play a similar role for the Bills. Leonhard's supporting cast in Baltimore includes such stars as Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs and Ed Reed, and there aren't any players who resemble them in Buffalo. Leonhard would be the third-best punt returner for the Bills.

Another one get's away
Leonhard was a stud at Wisconsin and I could never understand why they didn’t give him more playing time.
Against the Titans, he had an interception, 5 tackles, rushed Collins into another pick, and one sack for God’s sake – He will probably end up being a Pro Bowler.
And Justin Bannan doesn’t look too bad next to Halati Ngata. To think, the Bills could have drafted Ngata instead of Whitner(way overrated), and had two solid run-stuffing tackles.
