2014 NFL Combine - Players - The TEs

I am really intrigued by Leonard.

Positives:

The speed carries onto the field, he is a TE who can really take the top off of a defense.

He is good with the ball in his hands, he looks more like a WR on the field than a TE. I think that is where his future is. He was used on reverse runs if that tells you anything about how explosive of an athlete that he is.

His hands look pretty solid.

Negatives:

He doesn't have the strength to be a traditional TE. Like I said, he looks more like a big WR trying to play TE. If he wants to remain at TE, he's going to have to get a lot stronger for the NFL. Sometimes he can make the block but he also gets blown back more often than you would like.

His route running is raw and sometimes a little lazy. When he wants to though, he can turn on the jets and burn safeties and LBs alike.

Played against a low level of competition so you don't really know what you'll get when pitting him up against NFL level defenders.

Transferred from Florida because he beat his GF.

I would take him in the 4th or 5th.
