When you have the #1 defense in the NFL kick returns shouldnt be a top priority being that youll have less of them than any other team in the nfl. I think a good punt returner is exponentially more important, and Leon quite frankly was never known for punt returning skills.
Special Teams is important. Overlooking Special teams gets you exactly what they jets got this year.... bad special teams play.
Im saying id rather have someone like Brad Smith who does a satisfactory at returning kicks stick to that, and go after someone who is a stud at working punts. I think a punt returner definitely is far more important than the marginal upgrade Leon brings to us on kick returns.
