12:30 p.m. -- Fujita to visit Browns
    Saints  strongside linebacker 
Scott  Fujita, one of the veteran team leaders on the defending Super  Bowl champions, will make a free-agent visit to Cleveland on Saturday, a  league source told SI.com.
     Fujita, an eighth-year veteran,  remains a free-agent priority for New Orleans, but the Saints opted to  let him test the market. Their hope is Fujita's desire to remain in New  Orleans, where he has made his home and been involved in the rebuilding  of the community, gives them the opportunity to beat any potential  free-agent offer.
     Fujita will turn 31 next month. He played  in 11 games for New Orleans last season, missing five due to a leg  injury. He finished sixth on the team with 75 tackles, adding one sack,  two forced fumbles and three tackles for loss. He joined the Saints in  2006 in the same free-agency class as quarterback 
Drew  Brees, and has also played for Kansas City and Dallas.
     The  Browns, under new team president 
Mike Holmgren and general  manager 
Tom Heckert, are looking for upgrades at linebacker, and  have targeted Fujita as one of the best available talents in the  unrestricted market.
