Jim Leonhard trusted his eyes. Then he thought about what he'd seen and let it guide him toward his next landmark: the NFL. Leonhard kicked off this stanza of his coaching career in February when Sean Payton hired him as Denver's secondary coach and defensive passing game coordinator. Payton tried to hire him a year earlier, too, shortly after Leonhard thought he had the University of Wisconsin head coaching job locked up, only to watch the school hire Luke Fickell instead.
