Besides the Cowboys, check out how many other teams that are showing interest in this RFA. Anyone know anything about this FB? www.kffl.com/hotw/nfl Info is scarce on this guy, but I did find this morsel.... News: Restricted free agent FB Vonta Leach visited the Giants on Wednesday. Impact: Leach, a pure lead-blocking type, has also drawn interest from Arizona. (Wed. Mar 14, 2007) Was he the starting FB for the Texans? Havent had a decent blocking FFB since the Moose, even though we thought we had one in Jamar Martin.....bust. Looks like Wade wants to find his Michael Turner,,hopefully Leach, if we do sign him, can fill the role.

Appears he is going to the Giants:
ESPN's Len Pasquarelli reports the New York Giants on Monday signed Houston Texans three-year veteran FB Vonta Leach to a restricted free agent offer sheet. The Texans will have seven days to match the four-year offer sheet, which is worth a total of $8 million and includes $1.6 million in guarantees. If the Texans match the offer sheet, they will assume the terms of the deal that the Giants negotiated with Leach. If the Texans decline to match the offer sheet, Leach will move on to the Giants. Because he entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2004, and Houston made Leach the lowest qualifying offer for a restricted free agent, a one-year deal for $850,000, the Texans will receive no compensation from the Giants if they don't match.
