That's certainly possible. My concern, aside for the ever-present possibility of injury, is Leonard's age. He's almost a year-and-a-half older than Warner, and he'll be 31 in the final year of the contract, which is traditionally (but admittedly not necessarily) on the downside of a LB's career.
Plus Warner's contract has stronger built-in "poison pills' to discourage his release - the $3.6 million voiding penalty and the higher cap hit.
