Cardinals add Paris Lenon

The Arizona Cardinals have reached an agreement with free agent linebacker Paris Lenon.

Adam Schefter of ESPN is reporting that it’s a three-year deal.

Linebacker was a big need for the Cardinals, who lost starter Karlos Dansby to the Miami Dolphins. Arizona had free agent linebacker Larry Foote in for a visit, but after Foote signed with the Steelers, the Cardinals moved quickly to add Lenon.

Lenon played 15 games for the St. Louis Rams last year, starting 10. Prior to that he started all 48 games from 2006 to 2008 for the Detroit Lions, and spent four years, mostly as a backup, for the Green Bay Packers from 2002 to 2005.

    Wow….I’m surprised this guy made it on to any NFL team with the horrific performances he gave for the Lions!
    Bad move ‘zona!
    Should have given Foote a chance over this guy.

    Quite possibly the worst LB instincts I’ve ever seen. He would always on the wrong shoulder of the blocker or pick the wrong hole to plug.
    Cardinals fans… get ready to hate this guy

    More proof that there are too many NFL franchises. There is simply not enough talent to stock the rosters of 32 teams.
    Time to thin the heard.

    I will never forgive him for not picking up that fumble against the Cowboys in ’07. Lions fans will know what I’m talking about.
    Possibly the most upset I have ever been at a football game.

    lol. As a Rams fan, I’m so happy. Cards go from Dansby to Lenon. Oh yeah. I smell MVP votes for SJax this season. Well, maybe not. But I smell 2 100-yard games for him :D

    Lions and Cardinals??? They’re both irrelevant this year anyway. If you are going to talk about these two teams why don’t you ask the real issue.
    Who will throw the most interceptions in the NFL this year? Stafford or Leinart

    So you replace Dansby and Rolle with Lenon and Rhodes… and they still need replacements for Warner and Boldin. Arizona better have something up their sleeve.

    The great Packer scouting staff got this guy into the league and it is good to see he still can get employed.
    Good job finding the talent among Packers.
    Undrafted free agents do have some talent.

    Are you sure it’s not Paris Hilton? I mean, she wouldprobably fill more seats that this bod…. Oh, and she could team up with Brat Leinart again, couldn’t she?
